Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Chapter 20 Intimidation

The sun was shining brightly outside the house, and the red mandarin duck embroidery inside the house was being tossed for a long time.

………

Nangong Muxue looked at the new green branches on the old locust tree opposite, and unconsciously raised the corners of her mouth slightly.

She hasn't felt this joy in many years. The last time she felt this way was when she made great progress in cultivation.

She is quite proficient in divination, and pays attention to the way of heaven, and follows nature. When her cultivation reaches her level, she can faintly glimpse the secrets of heaven and sense her own luck.

Now she is just like this old locust tree, no, or rather, she is this old locust tree. She can feel that her luck is gradually getting stronger. She is waiting for this old locust tree to be completely rejuvenated and reborn. survived.

"Let's do it tonight." Zhu Guanglie took a sip of wine and said calmly.

"What do you need me to do?" Gu Chengqian's body trembled slightly.

Finally waiting for this day, he thought about this day all the time and couldn't wait for it. He didn't even dare to close his eyes. He was afraid that he would dream of that scene as soon as he closed his eyes.

"There is someone you need to deal with. Cui Yilin's disciple Tangning. I heard that he is extremely talented. In just a few years, he has acquired the true inheritance of Cui Yilin. His swordsmanship is even better than that of his senior brother Qi Yunfei. If you want to deal with Cui Yilin, this person must be eliminated. You You have a lot to do with him, you know what to do.”

Gu Chengqian was stunned for a moment and hesitated: "But the things Cui Yilin did had nothing to do with him, and he didn't know about it."

"He is Cui Yilin's personal disciple. Naturally he is on Cui Yilin's side, that is, our enemy. Don't you want to take revenge?"

"Perhaps, he can be used by us. If he suddenly attacks, Cui Yilin will be defenseless and can be captured and killed in one fell swoop."

"Oh? What's your plan?"

"He has an unmarried wife, whom he regards as his treasure. Everyone in the caravan knows it. As long as we capture her and use her as a hostage, we are not afraid that he will not listen to us."

"How sure are you?"

"At least eighty-nine percent."

"Then leave it to you! If things don't work out, we'll take action immediately."

……………

Tang Ning walked into Zui Chunfeng. There was not a single customer in the huge restaurant. The waiter led him into a private room. When he saw Gu Chengqian sitting there, he walked straight over.

Tang Ning was lying on the bed, hugging Liu Ruhan and messing around. Suddenly there was shouting from outside the door. The two of them quickly put on their clothes. If anyone knew that they were lingering in the bed at noon, they would be teased to death.

When he opened the door, he realized that it was the waiter who was Zui Chunfeng. He said that Gu Chengqian had something important to discuss with him, so he came here.

The two sat opposite each other, and Gu Chengqian poured him a glass of wine.

Tang Ning saw that he was tall and straight, his face was refreshed, and he was no longer in the drunken state of the past few days. She thought that he had finally come out of the nightmare that day, and she felt very happy for him.

"Cheng Qian, what do you want from me?" The two had a drink, and Tang Ning put down the cup and asked.

"The glass of wine you drank just now was poisonous wine." Gu Chengqian looked calm.

"What?" Tangning was stunned for a moment, thinking she heard wrongly.

"After seven days of heartbroken powder, the hallucinations increase every day. On the seventh day, the whole body is ulcerated, and life is worse than death."

When Tang Ning saw that he didn't look like he was joking, his face changed drastically, and her heart felt like a turbulent sea. She looked at him and asked in confusion, "Why?"

"Tang Ning, you are my only friend. I don't want to harm you. As long as you promise to help me kill Cui Yilin, I will give you the antidote. You can kill or behead him afterwards. It's up to you." Gu Chengqian still looked like that. , as if they were just tasting the dishes on the table

"Why?" Tangning didn't understand. He didn't know what happened, and it suddenly became like this. It even gave him an unreal hallucination.

The person sitting across from him was no longer the laughing boy he knew before, but another devil wearing the same face.

"Don't you understand? Of course you don't understand. You don't understand how much I hate Cui Yilin. These days, I think about how to skin him alive all the time." Gu Chengqian remained motionless and said unhurriedly, with a look in his eyes. The expression is extremely crazy, like a wild beast that chooses people to eat.

"The thirty-four members of the Zhenwei Escort Bureau were exterminated. It was Cui Yilin who was the instigator. It was he who tortured my father to confess."

"Impossible." Tangning shook her head repeatedly: "Chengqian, don't be deceived or taken advantage of by others."

"I have conclusive evidence, and I know that Cui Yilin slaughtered my Zhenwei Escort for an immortal treasure."

"You're crazy." Tangning looked at him in disbelief: "I won't help you."

"I know it's hard to convince you, but you have no choice. Cui Yilin will definitely die. I'm not the only one who has to deal with him. I understand what you care about most. If you want her to be okay, just cooperate with us."

After hearing what he said, Tang Ning instantly understood that he had been fooled into a trap. After thinking about it, he jumped out of the window and landed on the ground. Opposite him, a young man in brocade clothes came astride a horse. He jumped and kicked him off his horse. , galloping away on horseback, leaving only the screams of the young man in brocade clothes.

………………………

Liu Ruhan stared out the window motionlessly, looking forward to his return.

Tang Ning left in a hurry just now, which made him feel a little worried, worried about what was going to require him to go out.

There was a sudden noise behind her, and Liu Ruhan turned around, feeling suddenly suffocated, and a big hand covered her mouth and nose.

With three strokes, Wang Li neatly put the pink and jade-like person in front of him into a sack. He had done this not once or twice, and he was extremely skilled, but this was the first time he kidnapped such a beautiful woman. Comparing the leading figures in the Red Mansion with her is like sewage compared with clear lotus, which is unbearably vulgar.

If he wasn't afraid of Mr. Zhu's methods, he really didn't want to hand over this beauty.

He was about to pick up the sack and leave when suddenly his vision blurred and a Taoist nun appeared quietly at the door.

Wang Li instinctively looked up and felt that the world was spinning, and then fell into darkness.

The sack stood on its own without wind and turned into powder. Liu Ruhan looked at the Taoist nun in front of her in surprise. She hadn't recovered yet and looked at the fallen man in black.

"Come with me!" The Taoist nun said slowly, her voice was light and cold, just like her, like an iceberg that would never melt.

Liu Ruhan shook her head and took a few steps back.

Nangong Muxue was overjoyed when she saw this. She had never thought that she had developed antibodies before practicing and could resist his illusion technique.

She turned her left hand, and a delicate wooden boat appeared in her hand, and she threw it upward.

The wooden boat swelled in the wind. In an instant, it rose to a hundred feet and broke through the roof. It stopped in mid-air. Colorful lights were surrounding it and could be clearly seen dozens of miles away.

Nangong Muxue's body flashed and she suddenly appeared on the huge ship. She waved her hand gently, and Liu Ruhan rose up from the ground and went straight to the bow of the ship.

The people around were dumbfounded at the colorful wooden boat that suddenly appeared in mid-air. Then they saw a woman flying onto the bow of the boat, and they all called out to the immortals.

The wooden boat flashed away and disappeared, leaving only the crowd of people kneeling and worshiping in the street.

…………

Tangning was stunned and didn't realize it until the wooden boat disappeared. There was only one thought left in his mind: his Ruru had run away.

His mind went blank, and he instinctively slapped his horse to chase. He didn't know the direction, so he just kept galloping forward.
