Checking the corpse to see if there was anything worth collecting was part of Su Bai's routine after killing someone. But what disappointed Su Bai was that the Qi Practitioner had nothing but a flying sword. Other than the clothes on his body, there wasn't even a piece of jewelry.
"This kind of Qi Practitioner is no different from an ascetic monk. He doesn't cling onto the emperor's family for fame and fortune, but for the emperor's dragon energy." The monk coughed and said to Su Bai.
Su Bai held the sword in his hand. There were some patterns on the sword, probably some kind of formation. But it wasn't of much use to Su Bai, but it was different in the hands of others. Su Bai remembered that he had obtained a magic wand in the previous story world. Sophia even said that she would contact him to go to London to trade with her. This flying sword's grade was definitely not high. After all, this wasn't a Xianxia story world, but it was still not bad. Not to mention, Fatso probably wanted it very much. When the time came, he could use it to exchange for something with Fatso.
The monk didn't want to fight with Su Bai for the sword. He looked at the entrance of the inn and heard the sound of horses' hooves. Obviously, a group of cavalry had arrived.
"There are quite a lot of people." Su Bai pursed his lips. "Can we retreat now, or should we hold them off for a while?"
The monk shook his head. "Let's retreat. If those Westerners can't hold on for long, we won't be able to leave if we continue to stay here and get surrounded."
"That's true."
Su Bai jumped out of the window, and the monk followed closely behind. The two of them went down the stairs together. When they landed on the ground, a group of cavalry not far from the side discovered the two of them. They were already riding their horses towards them.
"Enter the forest and split up." Su Bai looked at the monk. "You should be fine, right?"
The monk also knew what Su Bai meant. He felt that he still had something to hide, so he might as well go his own way. On the surface, they split up, but in fact, it was also because Su Bai was dissatisfied with him for hiding his strength.
The two of them split up. The cavalry behind hesitated for a moment, but they also split up and continued to chase.
Su Bai was followed by a dozen cavalrymen. Fortunately, they were in the woods, and the speed of the cavalrymen could not be raised, so they could not encircle him. He could still maintain the distance between himself and the cavalry behind him. It was not that he was afraid of the dozen cavalrymen behind him, but if he was entangled, more Qing soldiers would gather. It would not take too many, just a hundred people would be enough to exhaust him to death.
The river had already appeared in Su Bai's sight, and the cavalry behind him did not catch up. Su Bai finally calmed down. However, something unexpected happened at this time. On the other side of Su Bai, a white figure appeared. The person was holding a long sword and was wearing white Kung Fu clothes. However, there were golden dragons embroidered on the chest and back.
Su Bai was also very familiar with the person's temperament and expression. He had just killed a Qi Practitioner, and now there was a second one. This time, it was a woman. She looked like she was in her 40s. Obviously, she was a little old, but her sage-like aura was very obvious.
Generally speaking, Qi Practitioners had a relatively long life and did not look old. Therefore, if this woman looked like she was in her 40s, her actual age was probably more than 60. She looked like an old granny.
The woman's eyes fell on the sword on Su Bai's back. She immediately shouted angrily.
"It was you who killed my disciple!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the woman quickly approached Su Bai. Even though Su Bai was running desperately, he still could not get rid of the distance between them. Instead, the distance between them was getting closer and closer.
When the distance between them was less than 10 meters, the woman's long sword flew out and stabbed at Su Bai.
Su Bai had to roll to avoid the flying sword. However, his running speed was also reduced. The woman was basically close to him, and the cavalry behind her was getting closer and closer.
If he really fell into the trap, Su Bai would feel very wronged.
The old woman was obviously flustered and exasperated. She no longer had the mentality of a Qi Practitioner. After the flying sword flew back to her hand, she directly attacked at Su Bai.
Su Bai was half lying on the ground. He exerted strength from his waist and slapped the ground with both hands. His whole body soared into the air and kicked at the old woman. The woman changed her grip on the sword. The body of the sword turned sideways. Su Bai's foot stepped on the sword. Then, the woman slapped the hilt of the sword with one hand. A vibrating sound came out and the sword shook. Su Bai felt his leg go numb and fell to the ground.
The woman did not hesitate. She took a step forward and stabbed at Su Bai's chest.
Baibi had been held in Su Bai's hand. At this time, he immediately swept it out. The dagger and the long sword collided. The opponent's strength was obviously stronger. In terms of strength, Su Bai had an overwhelming advantage. Su Bai only felt a pain in his wrist and the web between his thumb and forefinger. Baibi flew out of his hand. The opponent's sword was also moved away, but it still stabbed at the left side of Su Bai's lower abdomen.
It was equivalent to nailing Su Bai to the ground.
Su Bai subconsciously began to prepare to switch to zombie mode. However, just when Su Bai's eyes showed a touch of green, a paper talisman flew out of the woman's palm and directly stuck on Su Bai's forehead.
A suppressive force penetrated through Su Bai's whole body. The zombie's murderous aura was directly beaten back. Su Bai's body was lifted, but then he fell back to the ground.
The other party obviously knew him very well. It was obvious that she had been observing him and the others for a long time.
Su Bai was shocked. If it wasn't for the sudden appearance of the Westerners, he probably wouldn't even have been able to kill that Qi Practitioner.
"You killed my disciple. Hehe, I won't let you have an easy time either. I won't give you a quick death. I want you to live a life worse than death!"
The woman seemed very hysterical.
Then, the cavalry had already rushed over. Some of them dismounted and used iron chains to chain up Su Bai.
"You are not allowed to tear off the talisman on his forehead, and you are not allowed to kill him."
The woman left these words and quickly left. Obviously, she had other targets and other prey.
As for Su Bai..,
He was just one of them who had been caught.
…
The talisman on his forehead had a terrifying suction force. From Su Bai's own feeling, it was even stronger than sticking 502 glue on it. It was as if it had grown together with his own skin and flesh.
This made Su Bai feel that Fatso's method of sticking talismans was like a Pacific Ocean compared to this.
Along the way, Su Bai was blindfolded and locked in an iron cage. Then, Su Bai could feel that there should be a boat transporting him, because he heard the sound of water and felt the ground shake.
That woman did not intend to give him a quick death. Instead, she chose to slowly burn him. This was good news for Su Bai. As long as Fatso and the others could bring the little fellow into the demon's lair before he was burned to death, this story would end. He would also be summoned back to the real world and leave this damned place.
These Manchurian Qi Practitioners were indeed very powerful, but in front of the terrifying broadcast, they were nothing.
However, after traveling for about seven days, Su Bai changed from water to land and swayed in the carriage for another two days.
Everything here was still so real.
When they removed the black cloth on his head and locked him in a cage made completely of fine iron, Su Bai suddenly felt that it was a little ridiculous.
It had been almost ten days. What were Fatso and the others doing? It had been ten days, and they still hadn't brought the child into the demon's lair?
In ten days, no matter how inefficient that old woman was, she should have handled everything that could be handled. She should be back soon. Could it be that he really had to experience the ten great tortures of the Manchurian Qing Dynasty in the hands of that old woman?
This..,
Was really interesting.
"Hey, hey …"
At this moment, next to Su Bai, there was also an iron cage one meter away. There was an old man in Confucian clothes. However, the old man's treatment was much better than Su Bai's. He did not have any chains on his body, and he was holding a book in his hand. There were also several books and brushes on the ground.
Yes,
There was even a pot of wine.
As for Su Bai, he was chained up by seven or eight chains. His feet were suspended in the air. The treatment of the two sides was indeed a little infuriating.
Su Bai looked at the old man. The old man's hair was messy, but his eyes were clear. He had the attitude of an old urchin.
"Young man, I see you smiling. Sigh, it's really interesting. The others who enter here all look like their parents have died. Only you are smiling."
"My parents passed away a long time ago," Su Bai said.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was being too talkative." The old man slapped himself lightly. Then, he stopped chatting with Su Bai. He leaned against the iron cage and sat down. He began to draw circles on the book with a brush.
"What are you looking at?"
Since he had nothing to do, Su Bai felt a little scared when he thought about what would happen to him when the old woman returned. Therefore, he wanted to find someone to talk to to relieve the pressure.
"Back Pushing Diagram." The old man scratched his head as if he was scratching lice. Then, he blew on his fingers. "This Back Pushing Diagram has been changed too many times by the previous dynasties. The imperial court sent those Qi Refinement cultivators to capture me and change it again."
"It's more difficult to write it after changing it," Su Bai said.
"Hey, young man, you've said what's on my mind. I don't care about the first part. In any case, I just have to make it up according to the history books. As for the second part, tsk tsk, it's too difficult to make it up like the Great Qing Dynasty."
At that moment, a white figure walked over.
The old man immediately turned around and distanced himself from Su Bai.
His subordinate opened the door and the old woman walked in. Su Bai saw that there was an additional scar on her face. She really looked like Abbess Miejue.
The old woman smiled at Su Bai. "You're very lucky. I'm in a bad mood right now, so I won't torture you for too long. Because I'll be more heavy-handed. You won't be able to hold on for too long."
"I think it can be done slowly. You can lock me here and torture me for a year or so. You can make me live a life worse than death every day. That's the only way to vent your hatred. After all, I killed your disciple, didn't I?"
"Pfft …"
The old man choked and deliberately coughed to cover it up.
The smile on the old woman's face did not change. She reached out her hand and grabbed Su Bai's Baibi,
Then..,
Without a word of nonsense..,
She directly grabbed the Baibi and stabbed it at Su Bai's crotch..
