Zhang Qingyun's body immediately flew to the side and grabbed at Hua Ruyan with his left hand. Hua Ruyan had already placed her metal hook in front of her chest to prevent this attack from happening. The iron hook smashed straight into Zhang Qingyun's arm. Zhang Qingyun could only push himself off the ground with his feet as he tilted his body and swung his arms, attacking Hua Ruyan's shoulders. Hua Ruyan had forced Zhang Qingyun to change his moves. She took a slow step back to the door. Zhang Qingyun wanted to give chase, but when he saw the three silver needles shooting at him, he dodged them all. With this change in events, Hua Rui walked out of the cellar door and said, "Quick, close the door."

Everyone was stunned for a moment before saying, "The hall master is still inside." Hua Ruyan said angrily, "Zhang Qingyun's martial arts, it's not like you didn't see it. If it doesn't close, you and I will die." Just a moment ago, he was still groaning, but now he was completely silent. He must have been severely injured, and if he was to be rescued, he would most likely not be able to survive. Gritting his teeth, he closed the cellar door, and Zhang Qingyun followed him to the door. The cellar door had just slammed shut. The cellar turned dark and he could not see anything. His palm touched the door of the cellar and felt that it was very thick. His palm strike could completely force it open. With Hua Ruyan and company, no one could stop him. He struck with his palm. He thought that if he went out looking like this, he might fall for their tricks again. If he went out and transferred Tingting and the others away, then he would be at a disadvantage. He then groped his way back. The cellar was unusually quiet. Apart from the sound of his own footsteps, there was no other sound. He returned to his seat beside them. Listening carefully, one could hear that their breathing was very weak, but fortunately, it was quite even. For the time being, his life would not be in danger, so he relaxed his mind and listened to Zhou Dingkun's movements. After a while, there was no movement. Even his breathing had gone, and he was actually dead.

He helped the three of them up and leaned against some miscellaneous items to prevent the damp from getting too heavy in the cellar and aggravating their poison situation. Then he sat down in the cellar. He didn't know when they would wake up, so he had no better choice but to wait for them to wake up. At this time, a strange smell drifted over from the cellar. It was a strong stench which was extremely pungent and unpleasant to the nose. He could smell it in his chest, and it made him feel nauseous. Zhang Qingyun thought that Hua Ruyan was poisoning him again, so he immediately tried to hold his breath. Other than making him feel annoyed, he did not feel anything wrong with the smell, so he deliberately fell to the ground, pretending to be motionless. It was pitch black here, yet the gas could enter, there must be some other place in the cellar where Hua Ruyan was hiding and was watching him, so he pretended to be poisoned and fainted. The door to the cellar had yet to be tightly shut. Now, once he was dressed, he could no longer move, for fear that he would be discovered by Hua Ruyan and everything in front would be useless. If Hua Ruyan knew that she could no longer use poison against him, there might be a chance that some other poison might be unleashed. He could only close his eyes and stare at the cellar door. As he read, no one came in for a long time. His eyes became tired from looking. Then he woke up and unknowingly fell asleep. After sleeping for a while, he woke up again. He did not know how long he had slept, but there was still no movement from the cellar door. His hands and feet were numb. He felt really hungry in his stomach. Who knew how long he had been locked up here. Actually, it was already the morning of the second day after they had entered Xiangyang City. They had only eaten a bowl of noodles yesterday, and they were still eating a bowl of venomous noodles, so how could they not be hungry? He thought to himself, "Do they want to starve us to death in this cellar?" Just as he was thinking about what to eat, the smell of roasted chicken suddenly came from outside the door. The fragrance was extremely strong, and Zhang Qingyun secretly pinched his fingers, wondering if he was dreaming. A wave of pain told him that this was not a dream, but real. The fragrance came from outside the cellar door, and they saw that a small crack had been opened in the door of the cellar, if not for the light shining in, it would be hard to discover, and the fragrance was faintly transmitted from that crack. Zhang Qingyun, after smelling the fragrance, felt even hungrier, and really wanted to rush out to grab the roasted chicken and eat it, but when he saw the crack in the sunlight, he knew that it was their trick, and was trying to test if he was really poisoned. Fortunately, he managed to control himself and did not move at all. Not long after, very light footsteps came from outside the door, blocking the light from coming through the crack. Zhang Qingyun saw that someone was moving at the door, but he could not recognize the person. At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the door. "How is it?" Ah Quan walked back and said, "Elder Hua, that little kid must have been really poisoned this time. I just left such a fragrant roasted chicken here and he's been inside for a whole day and a night, if it wasn't for the poison, how could he not have come out. I went over to take a look and saw that he wasn't even moving at all," Hua Ruyan said. "He really didn't move, but his life is in danger, you can see it clearly."

Ah Man replied, "This little one saw it clearly. He definitely didn't move at all. How was he lying yesterday? Just now, he was still in the same condition as before, but he dared to use his life to guarantee it."

Zhang Qingyun thought to himself, "This is indeed another scheme of theirs. They would have long been seen through by me." Otherwise, it would have been seen through by him. Wait for Hua Ruyan to come in, I will catch you immediately and force you to hand over the cure. "Let's see what else you can do!"

Hua Ruyan laughed loudly outside the door, "Good, quickly open the door," Ah Quan opened the door and saw Zhang Qingyun sprawled on the floor, "Elder, look, he has been there the whole time," Hua Ruyan said with a smile, "Well done, you go in and see if he is really poisoned. Don't let him trick us again." "Be careful when you enter the cellar. If you find anything wrong, come out immediately. You've seen his martial arts yesterday. Pavilion Master Zhou was beaten down to the ground without even being able to move an inch. Even now, you still don't know if he's alive or dead."

Zhang Qingyun had struck out with his palm like the wind yesterday, and without any warning, he had knocked the hall master down to the ground and made him never get up again. The miserable scene was still fresh in his mind, and his extended foot could not help but shrink back down.

She reminded him out of good intentions, but he was actually scared out of his wits by Zhang Qingyun. Hua Ruyan thought to herself, why is this guy so timid, and why isn't he a man? Knowing that it would no longer work on him by threatening him, some people's potential was brought about by stimulation. At this moment, it would be better to show kindness to him. "Ah Quan, didn't you guarantee that he never moved inside? There's no need to be afraid. As long as you go in and take out Lu Xiaotian's heirloom, the Vice Hall Master of the Sparrow Temple will be yours. " When Ah Quan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. Benefits have replaced fear. "Elder Hua, is that true?"

Hua Ruyan said, "When have I ever gone back on my word? How could I ever go back on your word? Of course I mean it." Ah Quan said, "This subordinate knows that the elder has always spoken out things like that and has never lied to us." Hua Ruyan said, "If you know, go quickly. I have always felt that you are an outstanding talent, but I have never had the chance to show off. Now that the chance has come, quickly go and prove yourself. " Everyone was secretly pleased with themselves, it turned out that the elder had always been paying attention to them, one day when they finally had a chance to show their face, he mustered his courage and stepped into the cellar, Hua Ruyan was also laughing inside, a few words caused a coward's courage that had been scared out of his wits. Just the position of Vice Pavilion Master was enough to make him fearless of death. His authority was indeed impressive.

Because of yesterday's incident, Zhang Qingyun had actually scared Hua Ruyan so much that she did not dare to go into the cellar. Ah, it's not easy to catch Hua Ruyan after all. Ah, every step was taken in full concentration, as he stared fixedly at Zhang Qingyun. Inwardly, he was wondering if Zhang Qingyun had really been poisoned. When he thought about how he could sit in front of others as the vice head in the future, he couldn't help but feel more courageous.

Zhang Qingyun's eyes widened slightly. Seeing Hua Ruyan standing at the door, watching the whole thing, with her hand on the cellar door, she thought that she could immediately close it for fear of an accident. He had not expected Hua Ruyan to be an old fox. So suspicious. Ah, all of them were slowly approaching. What should he do now? If he were to remain calm and collected while lying down here, wouldn't the jade pendant and dragon and phoenix be completely extorted? If he could take them all down, it would startle Hua Ruyan again. He was lost and didn't know how to respond.

Ah Quan's eyes never left Zhang Qingyun. His heart was filled with fear for Zhang Qingyun, and if he made a move, he would immediately run out of the cellar. His mind reached this point. Suddenly, his feet were grabbed by something, which scared the hell out of him and made him scream out loud. He jumped up. He desperately ran out of the cellar and shouted, "Elder, help!"

Hua Yan could not help but be infuriated for she could not speak a word. He muttered, "Truly a useless thing." He reached out to grab Ah Quan's arm and said, "What are you panicking for, look carefully." "Something in the cellar suddenly grabbed my foot. Terrible."

Hua Ruyan said exasperatedly, "Look carefully, it's Hall Master Zhou who isn't dead yet." Ah, all of them turned to see Zhou Dingkun moving his hands in the cellar. He said, "Flower Elder, quickly save me." Ah Quan said, "Hall Master, you're not dead yet, did you grab my leg just now?" Hua Ruyan said angrily: "If it wasn't him, who else would it be? You are such a coward, how can you become the Vice Hall Master? They thought that you were a talent after all, and they specially gave you this opportunity. They didn't expect that you would be so useless. "You can forget about getting the position of Vice Pavilion Master."

Ah! Everyone was startled. If the position of Vice Pavilion Master failed, then all hope would turn to foam. He hurriedly said, "Don't, Elder Hua, it was an accident just now, but your subordinate actually has the guts to do so. I beg Elder to give this subordinate another chance. This subordinate will go get the treasure left behind by Lu Xiaotian on Zhang Qingyun. "

Hua Ruyan said: "Alright, I'll give you another chance. The treasure is not in a rush right now, let's go in and rescue Pavilion Master Zhou first." All of them mustered up their courage again and started for the cellar. One step at a time, one battalion, walking at an extremely slow pace. Hua Ruyan pushed him from behind and said, "Quickly go in." Ah Quan lost his balance and staggered to Zhou Dingkun's side. His face was ghastly white as he said, "Hall Master, are you really not dead?" Zhou Dingkun said, "I'm not dead. I just fainted. Ah Quan, save me." Ah Quan suddenly took a few steps back and said, "Don't lie to me, you're not dead. Why are you not poisoned?" That was because Zhou Dingkun had fainted from Zhang Qingyun's palm attack. When Hua Ruyan tried to poison him again, he did not inhale any poisonous gas, so he was not poisoned. Zhou Dingkun replied, "How could I have been poisoned? I was just severely injured and couldn't stand up."

"Ah Quan, what are you dawdling about? Don't say that I'm not giving you a chance. "Quick, bring Pavilion Master Zhou out!"

Ah Quan's heart skipped a beat, as if he was disappointed. His future was ruined. This time, he could not afford to lose the opportunity. He braced himself, braced himself, braced himself, and walked over. He bent over and lightly touched Dingdong's forehead, feeling that he was still warm, and that he really had not died. Then, he gathered up his courage even more, grabbed Zhou Dingkun's arm, and slowly helped him out of the cellar. As they walked to the cellar door, Hua Ruyan checked on Zhou Dingkun. She felt that his breathing was erratic and his pulse erratic. It was a miracle that he had survived until now. He was secretly surprised that Zhang Qingyun's Qi was so high. Although Zhou Dingkun's martial arts were not of the first rank, he was still a rare expert in the martial arts world. With just a casual palm from Zhang Qingyun, he had shattered Zhang Qingyun's heart and was unconscious. Now, he didn't know if he was really poisoned. Don't pretend to be poisoned again. If you fall for his trick, it's better to wait a bit. "It's more important to save him now. Help Pavilion Master Zhou back to his room for treatment."

Ah Quan was still thinking about the Vice Hall Master's position and said, "Then, are we not taking Lu Xiaotian's heirloom anymore?" Hua Ruyan said, "Zhang Qingyun is lying here poisoned, he won't be able to escape anyways. It's not too late for us to retrieve Lu Xiaotian's treasure later, it's more important to save him now." They had no choice but to lock the cellar door with Zhou Dingkun.

Zhang Qingyun thought to himself that it was a pity, how could this Hua Ruyan become so cowardly that she did not even dare to look at them. He did not know when they would come in and how long he would have to continue pretending.

A long time later, Miao Rufei woke up with a cry. He felt that his head was extremely heavy, so he hugged it and shook it a few times. He felt weak all over. Standing in an extremely dark place, his heart was frightened as he asked, "What place is this? Why is it so dark?" Brother Qing Yun, where are you? " When Zhang Qingyun heard Miao Rufei wake up and call him over, he really wanted to tell her that this was a cellar and that Hua Ruyan had locked it up.

Miao Rufei suddenly cried out and said, "Oh, my head hurts. What's wrong?" He felt like he was covered in rope, but it was also loose. Leaning against his back was a wooden chest. His right hand grabbed the side of the box and tried to stand up, but he was too weak to do anything about it. He half stood up and fell down again, so he had to grope his way forward.
