[Comprehensive Martial Arts] Journey to the Homeland

Chapter 178

Su Ye's quiet room is ingenious, it is located in the underground of Dalongtou Mansion, and it is only connected to the outside world through a cellar-like exit.Every time she retreats, she always uses the change of the moon phase as a separation, that is, one phase per month.When the moon was dark, she would walk out of the ground, like a nocturnal vampire, and go to the study to get the latest information.

However, she is also relaxed and natural when she is in meditation, allowing outsiders to disturb her.If something happened to Zhai Rang, or there was an emergency in the mansion, someone who knew the inside story would knock on the iron gate and call her out.

So far, she has not had this experience.

She doesn't need to do this in the Pegasus Ranch, because the ranch already has many deep mountains and old forests.She chooses a place to meditate at random, and guarantees that three or two months will pass, and no one will come to disturb her.

In a word, she likes to use the dark and quiet environment to eliminate all distracting thoughts, linger in the experience of herself and nature, and steadily establish the connection between the two, so as to return from the acquired to the innate. It is recorded in "Xiantian Gong" that if you want to practice the two hexagrams of Qiankun, you must reverse the direction from other hexagrams to the original direction, which is exactly the opposite of the natural process of the evolution of everything in the universe.

Every master master has to go through this difficult journey, but the method used is different.Some people rely on amazing talent and perseverance to reach the final step only by their own efforts.Others are slightly less talented, so they have to resort to tricks, using treasures, medicines, and even stealing other people's skills to help themselves surpass the boundary between life and death.

Su Ye has always been down-to-earth, and rarely imagines the distant future. He only intends to practice step by step and perfect his innate skills.She knows better than anyone else that after a few months, she is very likely to face a truly terrifying opponent, and of course she can benefit as much as she can now.

However, after Zhai Rang, Li Mi, Shen Luoyan and others left Xingyang one after another, the iron door of the quiet room was slammed for the first time.

At this time, Shen Luoyan had left the city for more than two months, and Su Ye had also left the customs twice, browsing through the documents and letters sent by Tu Shufang, but never found anything unusual, but something went wrong on the third time.When she heard the door knock, she was very surprised. She immediately stopped working and opened her eyes, walked up the stone steps, and opened the iron chain that locked the door.

When the iron door opened, a pear-blossoming face appeared in front of her. It was Susu, Zhai Jiao's personal maid.She was already pretty, and it was even more pitiful when she cried. She cried while crying: "Miss was kidnapped!"

Zhai Jiao has two most trusted maids, one is Su Su and the other is Chu Chu.The three of them, master and servant, all knew that Su Ye was in the quiet room, and they could ask her for help in a critical moment.Therefore, when Zhai Jiao had an accident, Su Su immediately rode back to the city, knocked open the door of the quiet room, and told the ins and outs.

Zhai Rang was just such a daughter, and he spoiled her lawlessly.After he left for the expedition, Su Ye retreated, and no one in the city dared to take care of Zhai Jiao's affairs, and let her go wherever she wanted.But Zhai Jiao was warned many times by her father, she didn't dare to run around, but found that today's autumn is bright and clear, the sky is as clear as a wash, which aroused the interest of autumn hunting, so she took people out of the city for hunting.

During the hunting, a tall and thin mysterious man with a black scarf covering his face and holding a dust whisk suddenly appeared in the dense forest.Surrounded by his guards, he shot many people to death with his fly whisk and successfully kidnapped Zhai Jiao. Before leaving, he threw an unsealed letter to Susu.

Su Su went straight to the quiet room, not only trusting Su Ye, but also because the words "Respectfully, Miss Su Ye" were clearly written on the cover.

There was only one piece of paper in the letter, and the content was extremely simple, without header or signature, and asked Su Ye to go to a deserted earth temple on the hillside of a barren mountain, forty miles east of Xingyang city, to rescue him at midnight two days later. Zhai Jiao.If she doesn't show up after the deadline, Zhai Rang's beloved daughter will be chopped into a puddle of meat.

After reading it, Su Ye couldn't help shaking his head, thinking that this was Li Mi's method to lure Zhai Rang, so how could it fall on him.She asked Susu again and again, and confirmed that Zhai Jiao was indeed forcibly taken away, so she comforted her a few words and said calmly: "I see, I will go and have a look."

The kidnapping of Dalongtou's own daughter was a major event that shocked Xingyang.While Su Su was looking for Su Ye, Chu Chu was also crying and looking for Tu Shufang, hoping he would come up with an idea.Tu Shufang didn't go with Zhai Jiao, and when he heard that something happened to her, he immediately regretted it, ordered people to block the news, and rushed to meet Su Ye.

Su Ye had already folded the letter and was about to stuff it back into the cover when he saw him coming, so she handed it to him.

Tu Shufang's appearance is ordinary, he seems to be an ordinary guy who can be seen everywhere on the street, but his face is purple, his bones are thick, and his eyes often reveal unpredictable expressions, which also shows his identity as a martial arts practitioner from the side.His mind was far more meticulous than his appearance. After reading the letter, he glanced at the cover again, and immediately turned pale with shock: "This... this is a conspiracy against Second Miss."

From head to toe, from appearance to martial arts, Zhai Jiao herself has nothing worthy of others' covetousness.The masked man took her away just to lure Su Ye with her.

Su Ye smiled and said: "You can see it too? It's okay if I implicate her. But you don't have to worry, you don't need to report this matter to the leader. I will go to see them in two days."

Tu Shufang hesitated and said, "I'm not doubting Miss' ability, but the other party may have set a trap just waiting for you to come."

Still holding the letter in his hand, he observed the writing on the letter, trying to find some clues.Su Ye said impatiently: "Of course it's a trap, it's strange if it's not a trap. The other party chose the wilderness and mountains, away from Xingyang, because they were concerned about the strength of Wagang's army, and worried that the city gate would be closed and they would not be able to leave the city after a search. They're afraid, but I'm not. If I can't bring Missy back, it's not too late for you to inform foster father."

In fact, until now, Tu Shufang still didn't fully understand her identity.Zhai Rang told him to obey Su Ye's instructions and not to mess with her if there was nothing to do, so he followed the order and knew almost nothing about Su Ye's martial arts, what he was like, and what he did outside.

He was still skeptical, but seeing that Su Ye was so persistent, he didn't want to say much. He just asked her if she needed to mobilize the generals of the Longtou Mansion to guard the path leading from the barren mountain to the bottom of the mountain.

Su Ye said decisively: "You don't need to waste your efforts in vain, I have already guessed the person who kidnapped the eldest lady. No matter how many people go there, they are no match for them, otherwise I will not only take care of the eldest lady, but also take care of you, why bother?" Besides, the letter asked me to go alone. It is difficult for you to hide your whereabouts. If the other party finds you and refuses to show up, do you want me to search for people all over the mountain?"

She has offended the people in the Demon Sect many times, and she has predicted their reaction.But she didn't expect the other party to move so quickly.Zhai Jiao only went out of the city once before being taken away by others, which shows that they have paid attention to her for a long time.

Zhai Jiao should not be in danger of her life, because she is just a bridge to reach her.She said it well, stopped Tu Shufang's unnecessary actions, and after comforting the people in the mansion, she returned to the quiet room, acting as if nothing had happened, and did not leave again until two days later at night, and went to the east of Xingyang according to the instructions in the letter.

This ruined temple is located in a remote location, but it is not difficult to find it if you look for it with your heart.The so-called barren mountains are actually not real mountains, but small hills formed by the undulating terrain. Follow the hunter's hunting path up the mountain, walk to the deserted branch road, see the flowing stream in the mountain, and then walk in the opposite direction, you can see To a land temple that has been in disrepair for a long time, and even the color of the tiles has faded.

After autumn, the night wind is getting colder and colder. The wind is bleak, blowing the dead leaves in the forest and making a slight rustling sound, which makes people feel desolate. I always feel that wild wolves or tigers and leopards will jump down from the mountain. He pounced on himself in the dark.

There were no lights in the mountains, nor in the temple, and the front and back yards were pitch black.Most of the low wall collapsed, revealing the overgrown yard inside.Su Ye stood outside the temple and looked at it for a while, then smiled and walked in through the main entrance.

The "main hall" where the statue is enshrined is only slightly larger than the wing rooms of ordinary houses, but the statue itself is unexpectedly tall.The color of the statue has also faded, and it is tilted to one side. All the paint on its body has been peeled off, and the gray-yellow adobe is underneath. It seems that it has never had a good day when people burn incense and worship.

The moment she stepped into the threshold, a light suddenly lit up above the statue's head.The light is dimly lit, reflecting the graceful figure sitting on the right shoulder of the statue.

It was a beautiful woman who made people forget to breathe. Her white clothes were spotless, and her hair was black and shiny, hanging down to her waist.It is not an exaggeration to describe her appearance as "overwhelming country and beautiful city".When others take a look at her, it is difficult to move their eyes away and immerse themselves in her mysterious and ethereal aura.

Her eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of hazy mist, hiding the true thoughts in her heart. Her skin was crystal clear without any flaws. Under the light, she looked as charming and charming as a mountain ghost.The most unique thing is that she didn't wear shoes, and her slender feet were bare, swinging like a swing, full of femininity.

As soon as Su Ye glanced at her, she saw a smile on her face, and said softly, "Hello, sister."

Her voice was deep and sweet, full of magnetism, and when she spoke, several figures walked in outside the gate of the ruined temple.The leader is a tall, slender, handsome middle-aged scribe, but he is not Bi Shouxuan who is a "dual cultivation of cloud and rain".The masked man who abducted Zhai Jiao was walking beside him, with a whisk sticking out of his back, his figure was almost the same as the former.

Su Ye sighed, turned to look at them, then looked at the beautiful woman in white with an overpowering appearance, and said coldly: "I only have one question, and I hope you can answer it truthfully."

The beauty in white turned her delicate body around, and said gently and politely: "My name is Wan Wan, don't forget. No matter what questions you have, I will be happy to answer them."

Su Ye said: "I met Wen Caiting, the elder of the noble sect in Hefei, knowing that she stole the precious treasures from the master's family, but still let her go freely. I defeated Qu Ao in Huangshi, crippled his right arm, and did not touch Pi. Shouxuan has a hair. I thought I gave you Yingui enough face, but you kidnapped my adoptive father's daughter and asked me to meet here alone."

Houhou wrapped a strand of hair around her long fingers, tightened and loosened it, as if playing an interesting game, at the same time, innocently asked like a little girl: "So what?"

Su Ye smiled sweeter than her, and said with a smile: "My question is, does your faction think that I don't have the guts to kill people, or do you think that your faction is too powerful and the Queen of Yin's martial arts is too high, and I am afraid of being slapped by her old man?" Killed, so I dare not offend you?"
