Chapter 45
Volume [-] Tiger's Den
Chapter 3 Cabins
——Guo Que'er has emptied the purse, because he has decided to return the purse to Tang Yu.

—Will he change his mind?
—Will Wuji stop him?
Tang Yu's heart was beating, beating so fast.

Not only did his heart beat faster, his fingertips were cold, his lips were dry, and his throat seemed to be blocked.

It had been many, many years since he had felt this way for the first time.

It was April and spring, and he was still a big boy of fourteen or fifteen years old.

The weather that day was hotter than today, and he suddenly felt indescribably irritable.

It was very late at that time, and he wanted to sleep but couldn't, so he slipped out alone, wandering east and west, until his cousin

In the back garden, suddenly heard a burst of singing.

The singing came from a small room inside his cousin's boudoir. Besides the singing, there was also the sound of water.

The sound of water is the sound that a person makes while taking a bath.

There are lights in the cabin.

There are lights not only from the windows, but also from the cracks in the doors.

He didn't want to go there at first, but his heart was very troubled, not the usual kind of trouble, but an inexplicable trouble.

So he passed.

There is a gap more than half an inch wide under the door. As long as you lie on the ground, you can definitely see the people in the hut.

——He bent down, lying on the ground, with his ears pressed to the ground, and his eyes close to the slit.

He saw his cousin.

His cousin was only 16 at the time.

His cousin is taking a bath in the hut.

A 16-year-old girl is already very mature, with firm breasts and strong thighs.

……

That was the first time he saw a woman's mature and plump carcass, and it was also the first time he committed a crime.

But that time his heartbeat was not as fast as it is now.

□□□

Guo Que'er had already thrown out her purse.

It was only a moment from when he heard that Tang Yu was going to destroy the purse to when he threw it away.

But for Tang Yu, this moment is simply longer than a Jiazi.

Now the purse has been thrown over, and the peonies embroidered with gold thread are shining in the air.

In Tang Yu's eyes, there is absolutely nothing in the world more beautiful than this flash of light.

He tried his best to control himself, not to appear too excited or anxious.

When the purse fell to the ground, he slowly bent down to pick it up.

What he picked up was not only a purse, but also a pair of hidden weapons, his life was also picked up.

Not only his own life, but also Zhao Wuji's, Fan Yunshan's, Ding Qi's, and Guo Que'er's lives.

At this moment, he became the master again, and the lives of these people were already in his hands.

What a glorious, what a great moment!
Tang Yu couldn't help laughing, laughing loudly.

Guo Que'er looked at him in surprise and said, "What are you laughing at?"

Tang Yu said, "I'm laughing at you!"

He has already pinched the two 'Scattered Flower Goddess' that surpassed all hidden weapons in ancient and modern times.

He laughed and said, "You would never have thought that what you did just now was such a stupid thing. You not only killed Ding Qi and Zhao Wu

Bogey, I also killed myself!'

□□□

Guo Que'er was still looking at him in surprise, and everyone was looking at him in surprise.Not because of his smile, not because of
Not because of his words, but because of his face.

A strange change suddenly appeared on his face.

No one could tell what had changed, but everyone could see it.

At this moment, his gaze suddenly became dull, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

Then, the muscles at the corners of his mouth and eyes seemed to become stiff, and a mysterious dead black suddenly appeared on his face.

However, he himself didn't seem to feel it at all.

He is still laughing.

However, a look of fear suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he had realized that he had made another fatal mistake.

He forgot that his hands were neither gloved nor waxed to protect the skin.

He was too excited, so he pulled down the two hidden weapons empty-handed. He was too hard, and the needle tip of the hidden weapon pierced his fingertips.

There was no pain, not even that numbness.

The poison on this hidden weapon is the latest one they have refined, and they haven't even successfully researched the antidote.

This kind of hidden weapon has not reached the level of general use.

By the time he noticed a strange and terrifying change in all his muscles and joints, it was too late.

He couldn't control himself, he couldn't even laugh, he couldn't even use his own hands.

He wanted to send out the two hidden weapons in his hand, but his hands no longer obeyed the command.

At this moment, this poison has completely destroyed his nerve center.

□□□

It was a horrible thing to see someone who was obviously terrified and kept laughing.

Guo Que'er said, "What's going on here?"

Wuji said, "Poison!"

Guo Que'er said, "Where did the poison come from?"

Wuji didn't answer, Tang Yu's hand suddenly twitched, his movements were weird and clumsy, like the movements of a puppet.

The command sent from his brain just now was passed to his hand.

Only now did he send out the hidden weapon.

But his muscles and joints had stiffened, and his accuracy had completely disappeared.

The two hidden weapons flew out obliquely, as if they were ejected by a clumsy machine crossbow. They were very powerful and flew all the way to the Temple of the God of Wealth.

One of the furthest corners hit the wall.

Then there was the sound of the 'wave', the sound was not too loud, but the result was astonishing.

Fortunately, Wuji and the others stood far away and responded quickly.Finally, it was not hit by the flying fragments.

But what happened in this instant is something they will never forget in their lifetime.

Because at this moment, they are equivalent to taking a trip to the edge of hell.

The smoke and dust flying in the sky, and the flying fragments of light have finally all fallen now.

The cold sweat is not dry yet.

Everyone has cold sweat on their bodies, because everyone has seen the power of this hidden weapon with their own eyes.

After a long time, Guo Que'er was able to let out the breath that was stuffed in his chest.

'so close!'

Now of course he knew what a stupid thing he had just done.

He looked at Wuji, smiled wryly and said, "I almost killed you just now!"

Wuji said, "It's really close." '

Guo Que'er stared at him for a long time, and said: "Just now you almost died in my hands, now, you only have this sentence

Say?'

Wuji said, "Do you want me to scold you?"

Guo Que'er said, "Yes." '

Wuji smiled: "I also really want to scold you, because if I don't scold you, you will think that I am too deep and too rich."
Gloomy, not easy to make friends. '

Guo Que'er actually admitted: "Maybe I really think so." '

Wuji sighed and said, "Unfortunately, I can't scold you." '

Guo Que'er said, "Why?"

Wuji said, "Because I haven't been killed by you yet." '

Guo Que'er said: "If I really killed you, how can you scold me?"

Wuji said: "If I am killed by you, of course there is no other way to curse people." '

Guo Que'er said, "Then why don't you scold me now?"

Wuji smiled and said, "Since I haven't been killed by you, why did I scold you?"

Guo Que'er was stunned for a long time, but he couldn't help but admit: "What you said seems to make sense. '

Wuji said: "It makes sense." '

He laughed: "Even if you think my reasoning is nonsense, there is no way to raise the pole with me." '

Guo Que'er said, "Why?"

Wuji said, "Because what I said makes sense." '

Guo Que'er also laughed and said, "Now I finally understand one more thing." '

Wuji said, "What's the matter?"

Guo Que'er said: "You must not reason with you. I would rather fight with you than reason with you." 'He laughed:'

Because no one can tell you anything. '

He had been filled with remorse and apology just now, but now he was completely open.

Now, he has fully admitted in his heart that Wuji's words are justified.

If you can make others feel happy, even if it is unreasonable, it is reasonable.

□□□

Tang Yu didn't die either.

He didn't fall down yet, he was still standing there motionless as before.

But his face was completely numb. The pupils that had shrunk suddenly just now had expanded. The originally bright and sharp pupils

The eyes have now become dull and lifeless, even the eyeballs can no longer move, it looks like a dead fish.

Ding Qi walked over, stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, his eyes were still staring straight ahead, Ding Qi stretched out his hand

One finger, one push, and he fell.

But he didn't die.

He was still breathing, his heart was still beating, his pulse was still beating.

Everyone should see that in his heart he would rather die.

It was worse than death for him like this, and it was better than death.

It's a pity he couldn't die.

Could it be that there really is a just and ruthless ruler in the dark, and is this God's punishment for him?
Ding Qi also felt an indescribable fear in his heart: "Why hasn't he died yet?"

Fan Yunshan suddenly said, "Because he is Tang Yu." '

Fan Yunshan is 56 years old this year, and has spent most of his life in the rivers and lakes. Such a person, whether good or evil, good or bad

As bad as it is, there is always at least one good thing.

This kind of person must be very knowledgeable and interesting.

So he understands his current position very well, and he has been standing silently by the side without opening his mouth.

But he still wants to live and live better, and if he has the opportunity to perform, he still refuses to give up.

Ding Qidao: "Because he is Tang Yu, so he didn't die?"

Fan Yunshan said, "That's right. '

Ding Qidao: "Is it because God deliberately uses this method to punish people like him?"

Fan Yunshan said, "No. '

Ding Qidao: "What is it for?"

Fan Yunshan said: "Because he is a member of the Tang family, he was poisoned by the Tang family, and he has already developed resistance to this poison." '

Ding Qidao: "Resistance?"

Fan Yunshan said: "If you take arsenic every day, the dose will increase day by day. After a long time, it will be very difficult for others to use arsenic."

Death to you, for you have developed resistance to this poison. '

Ding Qi said: "Since Tang Yu is resistant to the poison on this hidden weapon, why did he become like this?"

Fan Yunshan said: "The Tang family's poison for tempering hidden weapons is a unique recipe, and no one in the world has ever known their secret."

Ding Qidao: "You don't know either?"

Fan Yunshan said: "But I know that if the poison on this hidden weapon is a new formula, although Tang Yu has already known about it

Some ingredients have become resistant, but they still cannot adapt to new ingredients. '

He thought for a while, and then said: "The combination of poisons is not only mysterious, but also wonderful. Some poisons restrain each other, and some poisons

When the medicine is combined together, it will become another more acute poison. Although this kind of poison can't kill him, it can completely kill his consciousness.

It can even completely destroy his meridians and joints. '

Ding Qidao: "That's why he became such a half-dead person?"

Fan Yunshan said: "Because most of the organs in his body have lost their usefulness, it's just that he breathes more than a dead person."

Ding Qi looked at him and said, "I didn't expect you to be so knowledgeable about poisons. Have you also practiced poisons?"

Fan Yunshan said: "I have never refined poison, but the principles of refining poison and alchemy are the same. '

He sighed, and said again: "As long as alchemy people are negligent, they will become like this." '

Ding Qidao: "Isn't this playing with fire?"

Fan Yunshan smiled wryly and said, "Playing with fire is definitely not so dangerous." '

Ding Qidao: "Why do you continue to practice?"

Fan Yunshan was silent, and after a long time, he said sadly: "Because I have already practiced." '

Because he was already on the verge of riding a tiger, unable to extricate himself.

There are many things in the world like this, once you start, you can't stop.

□□□

A half-dead man is a problem to both his friends and his enemies.

Ding Qidao: "This person seems to be dead, but he doesn't seem to be dead. I really don't know what to do." '

Wuji said, "I know." '

Ding Qidao: "How are you going?"

Wuji said, "I'm going to send him back." '

Ding Qidao: "Go back? Where are you going back?"

Wuji said: "He is from the Tang family, so of course he has to be sent back to the Tang family." '

Ding Qi was stunned.

He had good ears and eyes, but now he could hardly believe his ears.

He couldn't help asking: 'What are you talking about?'

Wuji said word by word: "I said I was going to send him back, to the Tang family." '

Ding Qidao: "You want to send him back personally?"

Wuji said, "Yes." '

The lamp oil was gone, but the moonlight shone in faintly, and the ancient Temple of the God of Wealth seemed very beautiful.

They haven't left yet.

I don't know who suggested it: 'Why don't we sit here and talk and have a drink?'

So Fan Yunshan rushed to buy wine.

A 56-year-old man actually went to buy wine for three young men. He must have felt very uncomfortable before such a thing.

Ridiculous, unbearable.

But things are different now.

He believes that Wuji and Ding Qijue will not break their promises, nor will they bring up the old things again and settle accounts with him, but this does not mean that they are no longer

has completely forgiven him.

From their tone of voice, he could hear that they still looked down on him in their hearts.

But now he has no way to care about it.

He only wished they would let him go back to his hometown, where no one knew if he had been a spy or would be the same as before.
So respect him and treat him as a friend.

Only now did he realize that a person really shouldn't betray his friends, otherwise he would even look down on himself.

He is already regretting it.

□□□

Tang Yu had already been carried to the dilapidated divine case, and Wuji tore off a divine tent to cover it for him.

Guo Que'er found some futons from nowhere, sat cross-legged, looked at Wuji, and suddenly said: "Do you know the most
I've heard people talk about you a lot lately?"

Wuji smiled: "Unexpectedly, I also became a celebrity." '

When a man becomes famous, he never knows it, just as he does not know it when his fame wanes.

know the same.

Guo Que'er said: "Some people say that you are a prodigal son. On the day you got married, you went to prostitutes." '

Wuji smiled, neither denying nor defending.

Guo Que'er said: "Some people say that you are a gambler, and you are filial, so you go to the casino to play dice." '

Wuji smiled again.

Guo Que'er said: "Some people say that you are not only ruthless, but also extremely selfish.

The wives are indifferent, and some people even bet that you would never shed a tear even if you saw them die in front of you. '

Wuji still doesn't argue.

Guo Que'er said: "So everyone thinks you are a very dangerous person, because you are ruthless, the city is extremely deep, and you work in the city.
Scheming, even an old fox like Mr. Jiao Qi once planted in your hands. '

He thought for a while, and then said: "But everyone also admits that you have the same advantage. You are very trustworthy and never owe anyone.
On the day of your marriage, make an appointment with your creditors and settle all old accounts. '

Wuji smiled and said: "Maybe it's just because I'm sure they won't push me too fast on that day, because they
None of them are vicious people. '

Guo Que'er said: "You mean, it just means that you are very good at seizing opportunities and taking advantage of other people's weaknesses.

That’s why you deliberately chose that day to settle accounts with them?”

Wuji said: "It's a bit risky to do this, but at least it's better than waiting in fear for them to come to find you." '

Guo Que'er said: "No matter what, you are good to Ding Qi. Others look down on him and think he is an unfilial person."
My son, the villain who betrayed the teacher, but you treat him as a friend. '

Wuji said: "Maybe it's just because I want to use him to do this for me, so I can only trust him and just
Tang Yu and Fan Yunshan would only be fooled if they asked him for help. '

He smiled and said: "Besides, I already knew that he was neither a villain nor a traitor. The legends about him, other than

In fact, there are other secrets. '

Of course Guo Que'er also knew that Ding Qi left home only because he found out about his stepmother's affair.

He killed his stepmother's lover and forced his stepmother to swear that he would never do such a thing again.
This must be concealed.

His father thought he was disobedient and rude to his stepmother.

So he had to go.

He betrayed his master just because someone insulted Taoist Jinji, he couldn't stand it, he made an appointment with that person for his master, and was cut off
One arm, but his master kicked him out of Wudang, because he was already crippled and unfit to practice Wudang swordsmanship.

Wuji said: "No matter who encounters this kind of thing, he will become his temper, but for a person like him, as long as others treat him
He is so good that he would even cut off his own head. '

Guo Que'er said, "That's why you treat him well?"

Wuji said: "At least this is one of the reasons. '

Guo Que'er said: "Hearing you say that, it seems that even you think you are not a good person?"

Wuji said, "I wasn't in the first place." '

Guo Que'er stared at him, sighed suddenly, and said, "It's a pity. '

Wuji said, "What a pity." '

Guo Que'er said: "It's a pity that there are too few bad people like you in this world." '

Ding Qi smiled: "Although this Que'er is cunning and crazy, at least he can tell the difference between good and bad." '

Guo Que'er said: "This Que'er can also tell who is a friend." '

Wuji looked at them and said, "You really think I'm a friend?"

Guo Que'er said: "If you are not a friend, why should I tell you such nonsense?"

Wuji sighed, and said, "I never imagined that there is such a fool as you in the world, and you want to make a friend like me." '

Guo Que'er said: "An idiot is at least better than a lunatic." '

Wuji asked, "Who is the madman?"

Guo Que'er said, "You." '

Wuji laughed. 'I thought I was just a prodigal, a gambler, but I was a madman. '

Guo Que'er said: "Although Shangguan Ren has become the son-in-law of the Tang family, it is the time of the spring breeze, but I miss him."

There must be something unpleasant in my heart. '

Wuji said, "Why?"

Guo Que'er said, "Because you are not dead yet." '

Cutting the weeds but not removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and regenerates, Shangguan Ren must be very regretful that he didn't kill Wuji along with him.

Guo Que'er said: "If the people of the Tang family know what you have done, they must also hope to cut off your head so that you
Tang Yu's parents, uncles, brothers and sisters all went to see it. '

He sighed: "Now you actually want to send Tang Yu back, as if you are afraid that they will not find you, if you are not crazy

, how could you do such a thing?'

Although Wuji was still laughing, his smile was bleak.

Only a person who hides a lot of things in his heart but can't tell them can smile like this.

He laughed for a long time until his face was sore.

He stopped smiling suddenly, because he had decided to treat these two as friends.

Although there are many things that cannot be said to others, there is no need to hide them from friends.

He said: "I am not a filial son. After my father died, I neither died, nor did I stay in a hut next to my father's tomb to observe filial piety.

He neither cried bitterly until his eyes bleed, nor shouted loudly, begging for revenge everywhere. '

He really didn't look like a filial son, as if he had forgotten about revenge.

He believes that filial piety is not for others to see, nor is determination for others to see.

He said: "This is my own business. I don't want to hurt anyone, and I don't want Dafengtang to fight Tang Menzheng for this matter."
confrontation, because there would be too much bloodshed.The murderer dies, Shangguan Ren must die, no matter what the reason is, I will never
Let him go. '

Guo Que'er said, "So you have to find him yourself?"

Wuji said: "Since there is no other force to sanction him, I can only do it myself." '

He continued: "But the Tang Sect is well-organized and has a huge scope. There are hundreds of households in Tangjiabao. Even if I can get in
, it may not be possible to find Shangguan Ren. '

Guo Que'er said: "It is said that the Tangjiabao is the same as the Forbidden City. It is divided into three floors, inside and outside. The innermost floor is the Tangjiabao.

It is the place where children and important people live. '

Ding Qidao: "All the confidential affairs of the Tang family are decided there. They themselves call that area "garden"

, but actually more dangerous than Longtan and Tiger's Den. '

Guo Que'er said: "Even if they are their own disciples, if they don't get orders from their superiors, they can't take a step forward." '

Ding Qidao: "Now Shangguan Ren is not only going to be the aunt of the Tang family, but also has participated in their secrets. For his sake
For his safety, they will definitely arrange his residence in that garden. '

Guo Que'er said: "Even if you can sneak into Tangjiabao, you will definitely not be able to get in, unless..."

Wuji said: "Unless I can find someone to take me in." '

Guo Que'er said, "Who are you looking for to take you in?"

Wuji said: "Of course we are looking for the direct descendants of the Tang family." '

Guo Que'er said: "Who among the direct descendants of the Tang family will take you in? Unless he's crazy." '

Ding Qidao: "Even if you're crazy, you won't be taken in." '

Wuji said, "What if he dies?"

□□□

This sentence sounds absurd, but luckily Ding Qi and Guo Que'er are extremely smart people.

They were also startled when they heard it, but they soon understood what Wuji meant.

Wuji said: "Tang Yu is a direct descendant of the Tang family. If I transport his body back, the Tang family will definitely call me in there."

Go to the back garden and ask me how he died? Who killed him? Why should I bring his body back?' He smiled,
"Tang Yu is of course the core figure of the Tang family, and they will never let go of these problems. '

Guo Que'er asked, "What's your relationship with him?"

Wuji said, "Of course I'm his good friend." He smiled: "On the way, many people must have seen me with him.

Together, what are we going to do today? I still eat and drink with him. Anyone can see that we are good friends. If the Tang family sends someone
Come to inquire, there must be many people who can testify. '

Guo Que'er said: "It turns out that you have already planned it, and even eating a meal is in your plan." '

Wuji said: "Although we have found out the Tang family lurking here, we will never take action for the time being."
deal with them, because—'

Guo Que'er said: "Because you want to keep them to testify for you, proving that you are a friend of the Tang family." '

Wuji said, "Because he
None of them recognize me, absolutely no one knows that I am Zhao Wuji. ' He explained: 'This year, my appearance has changed.

Change a lot.If I change my name and dress up a bit, even people who have met me before will not recognize me. '

Guo Que'er said: "This plan sounds good, but you seem to have forgotten one thing. '

Wuji said, "You say it." '

Guo Que'er said: "Tang Yu is not dead yet. '

Wuji said: "It's better not to die." '

Guo Que'er said, "Why?"

Wuji said: "Because people in the Tang family will trust me more, and they won't suspect that I am Zhao Wuji." ' he smiled:

"If I were, why would Zhao Wuji send him back to the Tang family alive?"

Guo Que'er said, "It makes sense." '

Wuji said: "This is called "putting it to death and rebirth". It is obviously impossible, but I did it anyway.
It is because you want to make others unexpected. '

Guo Que'er sighed and said, "Now even I seem to admire you a little bit!"

Wuji smiled and said, "Sometimes I admire myself very much. '

Guo Que'er said: "So as long as you take Tang Yu away, I will cry for three days." '

Wuji said, "Why are you crying?"

Guo Que'er said: "I know you are going to die, but I just can't stop it. How can I not cry?"

Wuji said: "You thought my plan was good just now, why did you say I was going to die!"

Guo Que'er said: "Because Tang Yu is not dead yet, although he can't speak or move now, he can be killed by then."

Cured. '

Ding Qidao: "He is poisoned by the Tang family, of course the Tang family has an antidote to save him." '

Wuji said: "It's not that I haven't thought of it." '

Ding Qidao: "You still want to do this?"

Wuji said: "Because the possibility you mentioned is not very big, he is too poisoned, even the elixir may not be able to cure him,
Even if it can be cured, it will definitely not be effective in the short term. At that time, I may have killed Shangguan Ren. '

Guo Que'er said: "You just "possibly" killed Shangguan Ren." '

Wuji said, "Not bad." '

Guo Que'er asked, "Is it possible that Tang Yu will be cured soon?"

Wuji said: "Maybe." '

Guo Que'er said: "As long as he can speak, as long as he can say a word, you will be dead, right?"

Wuji smiled and said: "This kind of thing is risky. Even if you eat eggs, you may be choked to death. Why not?"

How about dealing with someone like Shangguan Ren?"

Guo Que'er smiled wryly and said, "What you say always seems to have some truth." '

Wuji said: "So you would rather fight with me than reason with me." '

He smiled and said again: "Of course you won't fight with me, because we are friends." '

Guo Que'er said: "Since we are friends, shouldn't we also accompany you on adventures?"

Wuji lowered his face and said, "Then you are no longer my friends." '

He is ruthless, even to Qianqian and Fengniang, because he doesn't want to hurt anyone.

Guo Que'er suddenly laughed and said, "Actually, even if you beg me to accompany you, I won't go. I'm still alive and well. Why?

Want to accompany you to die?"

Wuji said: "Actually, I don't necessarily want to die." '

Guo Que'er said: "Even if you can kill Shangguan Ren, can you still escape from Tangjiabao alive?"

Wuji said, "Maybe I have a way." '

Guo Que'er said: "The only way for you is to put yourself into an egg, and then put the egg back into the mother's mouth."
Inside the belly of a chicken, let this old hen take you out. '

He kept laughing, laughing until others thought he was about to choke to death.

He stared at Wuji, and suddenly said: "From now on, we are no longer friends. '

Wuji said, "Why?"

Guo Que'er said: "Why should I make friends with a dying man? Why should I befriend a dying madman?"
make friends?'

He laughed again, jumped up laughing, and walked out without looking back.

Wuji didn't even intend to stop him at all.

Ding Qi sighed, and said with a wry smile: "He said that others are crazy, but he is actually a lunatic, an out-and-out lunatic." '

Wuji was actually smiling, and said: "Fortunately, there is another person here who is not crazy and will never go crazy suddenly." '

Ding Qi said: "Who?"

Wuji said, "Tang Yu." '
