Yangyue

The Hongyuehui Villa is huge and complex, and the fog is getting thicker and thicker, so that people's faces can no longer be discerned a few steps away.

Qi Zhu was protected by the guards of the duckweed pavilion, and went all the way to a side hall of the villa.

The leading guard beheaded an enemy and kicked open the door of a main house.This is a huge octagonal main hall, surrounded by eight colonnades, and in the middle is a sunken pool embedded in the ground. More than a dozen disheveled captives were locked in the pool by iron chains, and the pool was slowly leaking out. With white steam.

These captives are obviously not the captives in the tunnel that are specially used to suck energy. These captives are all good-looking, well-dressed, and have no wounds on their bodies. .

Qi Zhu had sharp eyes, and suddenly saw a woman in a tulle gouache skirt among the dozen or so puppets, she was in her mid-mature age, her eyes were slightly closed, she looked dazed and ignorant, and she was sitting by the pool with her head bowed.

The woman's appearance was exactly the same as the proprietress of Fuwang Inn who was burned to death.

Qi Zhu quickly walked to the pool and lifted the woman's upper body. The hot steam from the pool rushed into his nostrils, making him frown suddenly.The dizzying medicinal powder was melted in this pool, which was inhaled by people through the transpiration of water mist. No wonder these captives were insane.

The guard hurried to Qi Zhu's side: "Master Hou, be careful of fraud!"

Qi Zhu: "Don't inhale this water vapor, it will cause people to be dizzy. These captives should still be alive, untie them."

The guard cut off the iron chain that locked the woman with a knife, and the woman was half unconscious. Qi Zhu carried her to the ground out of the water vapor, and she slowly regained consciousness.However, the moment she woke up, the woman suddenly screamed in fear. She pushed Qi Zhu away, hugged her body, and kept shrinking back until the back of her head hit the stone pillar.

A moment later, the frightened woman knelt down on the ground weakly again, kowtowed her head until it was covered with blood, and cried, "Please...let me out...let me out..."

Although the woman opened her eyes, her eyes were blank and unfocused, her face was obviously full of horror, but her eyes were dull and lifeless.

Qi Zhu frowned, slowly stretched out his hand, and shook it in front of the woman's eyes, but the woman didn't respond, her eyes were motionless, she was actually blind.

"Are you the lady proprietress of Fuwang Inn?" Qi Zhu whispered, "Don't worry, we are not members of the Hongyue Society. We are sent by the government to exterminate these villains, and we will definitely rescue you."

The woman looked startled, and after a while, tears burst into her face.She groped with her hands until she touched Qi Zhu's arm, and she grabbed it tightly like a life-saving straw, crying bitterly: "Master Living Bodhisattva...help me...help us...I was arrested... It has been here for half a year, and I was poisoned and blinded by these gangsters, and I suffered all the insults and tortures that are worse than death..."

The rest of the guards untied the puppets in the pool one after another, and after checking them one by one, they all nodded to confirm that these puppets were all blind.

Qi Zhu stretched out his hand to hold the proprietress's wrist, and he couldn't feel any real energy or internal force in his body. He could only feel that the woman's energy and blood were too weak. Most of the energy in her body had been lost, and she was still able to speak. The tone is strong.

If the real proprietress of Fuwang Inn is here, who was the person they met at the inn that day?

After the proprietress finished speaking, she was already dying, half unconscious and half awake.There are too many captives here, and the enemy may appear at any time, and it is impossible to rescue them all with just a few of them.

The guard jumped up to the eaves outside the house, took out a firework used to transmit signals among the members of the Duckweed Pavilion from his arms, and released one into the misty sky. The light of the firework was still clearly visible in the dense fog. After a while, The rest of the dozen or so guards who were searching for the puppets gathered here from all directions.

The guards took all the captives out of the villa, temporarily placed them on a grassy field among the woods, and sent people to protect them.

Qi Zhu leaned the proprietress on a stone, and secretly channeled a small amount of internal energy to her through the pulse in his wrist.The proprietress opened her mouth to spit out a mouthful of cloudy black blood, her complexion was purple, and she coughed for a long time.

Qi Zhu immediately stopped sending internal energy, his internal energy is still too unbearable for ordinary people.

After coughing for a long time, the proprietress finally struggled to wake up. She leaned weakly on the stone, with blood hanging from the corner of her mouth, and her face turned from purple to pale with weakness.

Qi Zhu called out in a low voice: "Miss Boss, we have already taken you out of Hongyuehui Villa. This place is safe for the time being, so please rest assured. I still need to know something about this Hongyuehui Villa. Can you tell me the ins and outs of Hongyuehui Villa?" I?"

The proprietress was blind, and when she heard the words, she closed her eyes and shed two lines of clear tears. Her voice was as hoarse as sand, and she wept weakly: "The name of my slave is Liu Ying... Half a year ago, I met the Zhang family lady and the Xu family in the town. The three of us went to the river two miles away in the evening, and because the water was so clear and sweet, we wanted to fetch some water to eat... When we got to the river, a thick fog suddenly formed, and we heard Mrs. Zhang screaming. With a scream, Ms. Xu disappeared out of thin air! At that time, I felt dizzy and dizzy, as if I was pushed into the water... When I woke up, I was locked in this villa, blind in both eyes... …

"Since then, those gangsters have given us love potions every day, and done all the humiliating things! They often put us in a coma and didn't allow us to commit suicide... Many of the people who were locked with me went crazy , screaming day and night, I... I can't take it anymore... I just want to die..." Liu Ying burst into tears, and talked for a while, remembering the torture she had suffered in the past six months, and then Unable to stop turning around and throwing up, he almost vomited blood, "I... I happened to hear the gangsters who tormented us talk about this villa one day. The name of the owner here is... Yue Hongyi..."

After speaking, Liu Ying couldn't bear the exhaustion anymore, and completely fainted.

Qi Zhu had never heard of this Yue Hongyi, so he was not as famous in the martial arts world as the dead Yuanyang Sect Master, so he was not an old man in the world.

At this time, above the black tower standing in the dense fog, two figures suddenly jumped up.One of them was holding a long sword, while the other was covered in a hazy red mist, looking down on his appearance. The two of them fought indiscriminately, making dozens of moves in the blink of an eye.

Qi Zhu narrowed his eyes slightly, is that Xiao Yangyue and the leader Yue Hongyi?It seems that this Yue Hongyi is quite capable, and he can support so many tricks in Henry Zhang's hands.

A guard landed in front of Qi Zhu, knelt down and said, "Master Hou, time is running out, before the remaining enemies come out, we will take you down the mountain as soon as possible."

"I'm fine, why don't you take these dying captives down the mountain first, and leave two people to protect me."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Qi Zhu's words fell, a sharp gust of wind blew out from the villa. The wind did not blow away the thick fog, but instead brought a thicker fog strangely. The slightly reddish fog was like a wet and heavy layer. Clouds piled up layer by layer on the top of the mountain.

Qi Zhu suddenly felt that all the skin that was exposed outside the clothes, exposed to the blood-colored mist, unexpectedly felt a slight tingling sensation.What's even more frightening is that there seems to be something vicious hidden in the mist. The meridians in the human body are burning with a burning pain like numbness and itching. Most of the internal force and true energy are disturbed, as if a spark exploded in the body. Open, the pain is endless.

Qi Zhu was frightened, and instantly mobilized his internal energy to isolate the poisonous gas from his body.This poison is more harmful to those who practice martial arts than those who do not practice martial arts. If Qi Zhu's meridians had not been destroyed, most of Qi Zhu's meridians would have been destroyed, even he would have felt a little troubled by this poison.

Sure enough, the surrounding duckweed pavilion guards all showed pain on their faces, and even started to vomit blood.At this moment, it was too late to mobilize the internal force, all of the surrounding guards were poisoned and fell to the ground one after another, the meridians and blood vessels all over their bodies bulged out from under the skin, like a circle of grass stems wrapped around a person's body, the shape was extremely terrifying.

Qi Zhu squatted down and felt the pulse of one of the guards. His internal energy was in turmoil. Although there was no danger of his life for the time being, if he inhaled the poisonous mist for a long time, it would be very dangerous.

Qi Zhu frowned tightly, what kind of poison is this?When did this vicious thing spread in the rivers and lakes?Why has he never heard of it?

Qi Zhu sealed the main acupoints of all the guards around to prevent them from inhaling too much of the mist.A gust of wind suddenly burst out of the fog, and two huge monster-like shadows rushed towards Qi Zhu from the dense fog. Their shapes looked like dragons and tigers, and it was hard to see what they were for a while.

Now all the guards of the duckweed pavilion are poisoned, and there is no one to protect Qi Zhu.Qi Zhu stood still in place, looking at the shadows of the two monsters with a half-smile, his figure was tall and straight.

The two monsters had already rushed to Qi Zhu, and they both opened their bloody mouths to bite him, but the moment they touched Qi Zhu's body, the two red shadows suddenly turned into red petals floating away, just Just scratched Qi Zhu's hair for a moment.

"I don't have any real skills, but I have a way of pretending to be ghosts." Qi Zhu lightly brushed the petals that fell on his shoulders, and laughed lowly as if talking to himself, "I don't believe in ghosts and gods, so these trivial tricks can be avoided."

After a long while, a scimitar came flying from the fog, Qi Zhu dodged sideways, put his hands behind his back, and took a step back with his legs, and heard a woman screaming in the fog: "Imperial dog official! Take your life! "

That woman was the disguised village woman in the village at the foot of the mountain. Her face was covered with blood, her eyes were red, and her face with heavy makeup looked like a ghost.She raised her hand to hold it falsely, and the scimitar she shot just now flew back into her palm. She held two scimitars in her hand and moved them side to side, as if she wanted to chop off Qi Zhu's head.

Qi Zhu's face remained unchanged, his eyes were calm as if he was just brushing off a drop of rain and dew on his clothes.He took out the folding fan from his sleeve, and the head of the fan only lightly pointed at the woman's chest in the air.

The woman's body shot backwards quickly, and then slammed into a tree trunk.Her bloodshot eyes were dull, and she felt a burst of burning heat entering her body from her chest. It was as if her chest had been hit by a heavy hammer and pierced by thousands of needles. It was an intense, almost crazy pain. .

The woman crawled forward and fell to the ground, with black blood pouring out of her mouth, a blood hole the size of a child's fist was torn open from her chest to her back, and even the clothes around the wound were neatly torn off.

The woman twitched for a moment, her terrified eyes fixed on Qi Zhu who stood aside with a calm expression, and she was no longer angry.
