Chapter 273 Wolf Heart and Dog Lung
There are no cars and horses coming and going on the official road that flows continuously during the day. In the nearby fields, farmers who have worked for a day have already returned home, and even birds fly back to the treetops in the forest. This is the quietest time of the day.
But the dilapidated temple is not quiet. The mice, who are not afraid of humans, are hiding in the dark and eating hard buns with the smell of rotten smell. Mosquitoes buzzing and looking for food happily. Unknown insects hide in the hay where beggars once lived and whisper, mate and lay eggs.
The two people were still confronting each other in the darkness, and the cold light on the Taoist Yiqing's chest was shining, which was the short knife against him.
It is not just a short knife, but a dagger. It is only the length of a woman's palm, which is usually hidden in her sleeves and in her boots, and is only used for self-defense.
But few people know that this dagger has already drunk blood.
It is not expensive, but it is a weapon of killing and a weapon of killing people.
The hand holding the knife is also very small and white. It is the hand of a woman who has not yet grown up, but this hand has long killed people. Since she was younger, she has taken other people's lives.
She is not bloody, and she does not kill indiscriminately. Everyone she kills deserves to die. If she doesn't kill, then she will be the one who dies.
In this life, she used her own hands to change her destiny. She lived from eight to twelve years old. She lived a difficult but vigorous life. She did not live freely, but she did not walk on thin ice.
Now, she looked at the Taoist priest in front of her. After staying in the dark for a long time, her eyes could see the Taoist priest Yiqing clearly, her eyes were closed. Is he going to die?
It’s not so easy. If you fall into my hands, your life and death will be in my hands. Moreover, you still have concerns in your heart. That is your concern and your weakness.
Anyone who has exposed his weaknesses will have already lost.
So over the years, she has also lost.
Because she also has weaknesses.
Shen Tong smiled bitterly, but there was no sadness in her voice.
"Someone told you that although Mei Shengxue caught the person, in the end, Langyue fell into my hands, so what you were thinking about was that I would kill Langyue. When you first saw Langyue's body, the first thing you thought of was that I killed Langyue. Before that, every time you dreamed of midnight, you thought of this. This is the thing you worry most, so you would burst out."
"Yiqing, I'm waiting for you here today, and what I want is just a sentence you rush out of your mouth."
"Yiqing, I know that even if I catch you and torture you, you will not say anything. You are a good opponent and a difficult person to deal with, so I can only use this method to make you say this."
"You not only know that Langyue is in my hands, but you also know where I hide Langyue. At first I didn't believe it. I didn't believe that the people around me would betray me. Just when I set up this game today, I still hoped that everything would be my cup of bows and snakes. But Yiqing, although you are a good opponent, the people you cooperate with are not experienced enough, and you were still fooled."
Taoist Yiqing's heart completely sank, and what he was most worried about was still happening.
"How is Langyue?" he finally spoke.
Shen Tong smiled sadly: "Langyue is gone, it is really gone."
Taoist Yiqing suddenly opened his eyes. Even through the endless darkness, Shen Tong could still feel the hatred in his eyes.
He wished he could cut Chen Tong into pieces.
"You set up this game, but did you lose Langyue?" Taoist Yiqing asked gritted his teeth.
"Yes, I set up a game. I just want to see who would take the opportunity to rescue Langyue. Unfortunately, the person who rescued Langyue did not hand over the person to you." Chen Tong burst out laughing.
She didn't cheat, and she didn't want to cheat on him.
Everything today is indeed what she has planned. She wants to see if Langyue will be rescued.
Xianren Zui was given by Mrs. Jiang. Mrs. Jiang gave medicine. Except for Xinwu, everyone was caught. The reason why Xinwu was not caught was not that she could tell that Xianren Zui was placed in the bun, but that she ate less... Mrs. Jiang forgot that Xinwu never liked to eat buns.
Today's buns are steamed by Huang. In order to please Huang, Xinwu only ate one. She said that the weather was too hot and the buns were too hot and wanted to go into the house to make some needlework and thread before she could eat them. However, before she could enter the room, she saw Huang fainted.
She also felt dizzy, and she immediately guessed that someone had drugged the bun, so she simply fell to the ground and pretended to be poisoned.
She was really poisoned, but she was not seriously poisoned and was not as serious as she showed.
Of course, these are Chen Tong's speculations, because Mrs. Jiang made a secret note at the door of the main hall in advance. Although she fainted herself, she was sure that no one in the room had walked out after she fainted!
Chen Tong should have been glad that her previous suspicions were all thought out of nothing, but Lang Yue was still lost.
Just as the moment Taoist Yiqing said her name, Chen Tong didn't know who won and who lost in this game.
At least one person around her informed Taoist Yiqing. Lang Yue was rescued by that man, but by chance, he was unable to send it to Taoist Yiqing.
"Chen Tong, have your conscience been eaten by the dog? No, you are really a wolf-hearted person!" Taoist Yiqing cursed viciously.
Chen Tong was stunned. After living for two lives, she was stabbed and scolded, but the one who scolded her was the first to be the one who scolded her for being heartless.
She hid Langyue and captured Yiqing Taoist again. Yiqing Taoist hated her. This is certain, but what did she do to Yiqing Taoist that would make him think she was a wolf-hearted person?
"Fake bull's nose, I've killed your whole family? Why do you want to scold me?" Chen Tong may be one of the few people in the world who still needs to find out when facing insults.
Your life is in my hands. I ask if I want to ask, and if I don’t want to ask, I will kill you.
Taoist Yiqing stopped talking, he closed his lips tightly and said nothing.
Chen Tong looked at him and suddenly asked, "You knew me before I came to Xi'an, right?"
Taoist Yiqing still didn't speak.
"Do you know someone from the Shen family? Do you know my grandfather, or my grandfather?" Chen Tong asked again.
The corners of Taoist Yiqing's mouth moved, but soon returned to normal.
Chen Tong sighed, and she simply took back the dagger that was pressed against the chest of Yiqing Taoist.
"Since you don't want to answer this question, let's not talk about me. Let's talk about Langyue." Chen Tong's eyes flashed slightly, and a smile appeared on her face, "Langyue is your illegitimate son. Although you are a fake Taoist priest, you can't blatantly let Langyue call you father, so you let Langyue be your apprentice."
"Nonsense!" Taoist Yiqing finally opened his eyes and glared at Chen Tong.
Seeing that he could only stare, but his body was not moving, Chen Tong understood that Taoist Yiqing was very nervous, otherwise he would not have even noticed the dagger being removed.
Normal people won’t just stare at, at least they will wave their fists, but Taoist Yiqing is not.
"Since Langyue is not your illegitimate child, then he is your younger brother. You are so different in age... I understand, Langyue is your father's illegitimate child!" Chen Tong suddenly realized.
