C91 Luring the Snake out of Its Hole
Meng Chong asked, "What good plan do you have?"
Duan Tianya said, "Come over here. "
Duan Tianya told the two of them what he was thinking. White Crane and Meng Chong nodded repeatedly, so Duan Tianya and the other two decided to return to Little Hua Mountain first.
When they returned to Small Hua Mountain and just climbed up the mountain, the Dao attendant at the door saw White Crane and hurriedly said, "Senior Brother, Master is seriously ill. He has already seen many doctors and hasn't gotten better. You should quickly go and take a look. "
White Crane and the others hurriedly came to Master Hengmei's residence and discovered that his complexion was not very good. From time to time, there would be coughs accompanying him.
White Crane asked anxiously, "Master, do you feel good?"
Master Hengmei slightly opened his eyes and said, "When I'm old, I might have caught a cold and found quite a number of doctors. I am a cultivator and know some medical knowledge. I know that it is not a big problem. " As he spoke, he panted and coughed a few more times.
Duan Tianya said, "Master's condition seems to be a chronic disease. As a junior, I will find the best doctor to come to Xiaohua Mountain to treat you. "
Then he said to Bai He, "I will have to trouble you to instruct the temple's dao children to find all the famous doctors in the world. Silver is not a problem. "
In a few days, the news of Master Hengmei's serious illness quickly spread throughout the Jianghu. Yuen Xiaotian ordered people to send good spirit fungus and ginseng, as well as many famous doctors, but they were all helpless against the condition of the Venerable One.
When Zi Shi was about to arrive, Little Hua Mountain was completely silent. Occasionally, one could hear crickets and crickets crying out.
Master Hengmei was in the room, coughing non-stop. Suddenly, ten men in black rushed in from the window. The leader of the men in black shouted loudly: "Master Hengmei, your time is almost up. Go to hell!"
Master Hengmei said with a weak breath. "I am already a dying man. Besides, I have been in seclusion for so many years. Why are you all doing this?"
The man in black sneered and said, "Taking money from others to help people get rid of disasters. If you are not seriously ill. . . We have no chance of winning" As he spoke, he swung his blade.
At this moment, Master Hengmei had a pair of spirited eyes and was agile. Looking at the situation, he was no different from a normal person.
The man in black said in surprise, "You are cheating?"
Master Hengmei smiled and said, "If I am not cheating, how can I lure you here?"
The man in black ordered, "Retreat!" The leader wanted to take the window out, but was captured by Duan Tianya and the others who had been waiting for a long time. The rest of the men in black were all killed.
Duan Tianya looked at the man in black and said coldly: "I don't want to know who you are, and I don't want to see your face. I just want to know who sent you here, or whether you are from the Lishou Sect. "
The man in black kept silent, as if he was ready to face death.
Duan Tianya continued to praise. "I know you are a man who values loyalty. It is very difficult to make you sell yourself out. "
The man in black still did not speak. His eyes, which were only exposed outside, glared at Duan Tianya fiercely.
Duan Tianya did not mean to remove the veil of the man in black. Instead, he continued, "But what you have done is of no value to yourself. It's not scary for a person to die. What's scary is that even if you go back, you won't be able to escape. Your superiors won't let you go. Because so many people died, but you are still alive. No one believes what you say. That's the scariest. "
After saying that, Duan Tianya drew his long sword and chopped off the head of a corpse, throwing it into the air. The long sword flew up and down, and in just a short while, the head of a corpse was shaved until only a skeleton was left.
The man in black swallowed hard when he saw this, but he still didn't want to speak. However, there was a flicker in his eyes.
Duan Tianya was not in a hurry. Instead, he smiled and said, "It's true that people are not afraid of death. We admire your character. However, you are willing to die, but you don't know how to keep your life. Isn't it sad?"
The man in black was moved by Duan Tianya's words. He looked at Duan Tianya and no longer had the anger that he had at the beginning.
Duan Tianya waved his hand and the white crane and Meng Chong carried a big box in. It was filled with gold and silver. The man in black stared at it with his eyes wide open.
Duan Tianya saw that the time was right and immediately said, "These silver taels are enough for you to enjoy the rest of your life. The carriage has been prepared at the foot of the mountain. You just need to answer a few questions. "
The man in black stared at the gold and silver in the box and finally couldn't help but ask: "Are you willing to let me go?"
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "I respect you for being a man. I will definitely not make things difficult for you. Otherwise, I will be struck by lightning. "
The man in black hesitated for a moment and finally made up his mind. "Alright then! What do you want to know?"
Seeing the black-clothed man loosen his mouth, the few of them looked at each other and revealed smiles.
Duan Tianya asked, "Are you from the Lishou Sect?"
The man in black replied, "Yes. "
Duan Tianya asked again, "Who is your master?"
The black-clothed man said, "I also don't know who the sect master is. This person has always been very mysterious. He usually wears a mask, so it is impossible to see his face clearly. "
Duan Tianya continued, "Then how did you guys contact each other?"
The black-clothed man said, "Every person who wants to join the sect must have a pledge of allegiance. "
Duan Tianya said, "You haven't joined the sect yet?"
The man in black said, "We have already joined the sect. This time, the higher ups sent us to assassinate Master Hengmei. "
Duan Tianya asked again, "Then do we have a chance to sneak into the Lishou Sect?"
The man in black said, "You just need to take your badge and use the secret signal to say your name. "
Duan Tianya was confused, "That simple?"
The man in black said. Yes, it's that simple. What I said is true, each of us has a waist tag "
Hearing this, the white crane bent over to flip the waist of the corpse on the ground and found that each of them had a waist tag on them.
Duan Tianya saw the situation and said: "What's your secret signal? What names do they have?"
The man in black immediately replied, "Our secret signal is that the other party asked if it would be a success? If it's not a success, then go back. If the assassination is successful, then go back to beheading. As for the name, you can just report it to Tengu, Dragon-Li, and Earthrat for the time being. "
Duan Tianya asked for the last time," Where is the Lishou Sect? "
The man in black replied, "Peak Spirit Town 700 miles away. "
Duan Tianya really let the man in black go. The man in black carried the box with difficulty and left. Even before he left, he was still worried that Duan Tianya and the others would really let him go.
Meng Chong asked in puzzlement. "You let him go just like that? Aren't you afraid that he will lie to us? "
Duan Tianya smiled and said, "As long as he knows the place, it will be fine. Besides, he has no reason to lie to us, because he has no other choice but to bet on this. We also have no other choice. "
The white crane asked, "Then what do we plan to do next?"
Duan Tianya turned to Master Hengmei and said, "Venerable One, I have wronged you. "
Before dawn the next day, Little Hua Mountain was filled with wails of grief, rejecting any visitors who came to the mountain. This was because the master of the temple, Master Hengmei, was killed last night, and his head was chopped off.
The sky gradually darkened. Seven hundred miles away, three black-clothed men appeared in Feng Ling Town with a cloth bag containing a head.
