The matter of Gu following the one armed man and Lady Boss was believable, but the matter of the bramble vines not being afraid of water or fire was pure nonsense.
If Long Fei Ye did not guess wrongly, the bramble vines were just an excuse for Gu to cover up his immortal body.
Gu had an immortal body, so the bramble vines that grew from his flesh should also be immortal, so it would not be destroyed by the sword fire.
Just like this, Gu successfully covered up his own secret.
Han Yunxi was now only concerned about why the sword spirit was absorbed by Gu's body.
"Then how did Mo Xie's sword spirit run into your body? Are … are you alright? "Han Yunxi asked again.
Long Fei Ye's lips curled into a sneer, waiting for Gu's reply.
Long Fei Ye had been pondering over this matter, he thought that Gu's body was able to withstand the sword spirit, it must be because of his special physique.
His undying, indestructible, and immortal body was much stronger than those ancient treasured swords. Naturally, he could withstand the Moye sword spirit.
Long Fei Ye suspected that there was no power in this world that Gu could not withstand?
What if it was the Lustbite power?
Could Gu Qishao take it? What about Bai Yanqing?
Long Fei Ye waited for Gu to continue talking nonsense, who knew, Gu pretended to be confused, shrugging his shoulders, "I also don't know why it's like this, now it feels … it feels okay."
As he spoke, he looked at the one armed man, very serious and also very fierce. Hey, what's going on? If you don't say it, I will poison you to death! "
Gu was taking advantage of him and still acting innocent!
The one armed man was unbearably tricked by Gu, he really did not understand how this guy could withstand Mo Xie's sword spirit.
"Logically speaking, the human body cannot withstand the sword spirit, I also know why it's like this. You … "The one-armed man sized up Gu. The more he looked, the more confused he became.
"So he's not human?" Long Fei Ye suddenly said in a Cold Voice.
Gu immediately turned around to look at him, his gaze especially sinister. He was about to walk towards Long Fei Ye when the Lady Boss, who had been silent all this while, suddenly stood up and pounced on him. "Return Mo Xie's Sword Spirit to me! Return it to me! "
Gu immediately retreated, but the Lady Boss still chased after him, cursing viciously, "Shameless thing, return Mo Xie's Sword Spirit to me! It's mine! Mine! I'll kill you! "
Gu Qishao could tell that there was something wrong with the proprietress's head, but he didn't argue with her. Instead, he kept dodging and dodging, but the proprietress took out a dagger and stabbed at him again and again.
Gu hid behind the one-armed man and said angrily, "Catch her, otherwise I won't be polite."
The one-armed man didn't stop him, but struck the Lady Boss's neck with his palm, directly knocking her unconscious.
The Lady Boss was paralyzed on the ground. The one-armed man looked at her, the heartache in his eyes was like tears, about to overflow at any time.
"She … What's going on? What right do you have to say that Mo Xie's Sword Spirit is hers? "Han Yunxi asked.
Even though they had found the murderer, even though Mo Xie's Sword Spirit was taken by Gu, they were still full of puzzlement about this matter.
"Since she's in your hands, you can do whatever you want with her." The one-armed man said indifferently.
"Then I can only hand you over to the magistrate, these few lives are innocent." Han Yunxi said Cold. I killed them, let her go! "The one-armed man said in a low voice.
"I believe that you killed them, but wasn't she the one who collected the bones? Didn't she have a part in setting the memorial hall on fire? "Han Yunxi questioned.
The one-armed man suddenly looked at Han Yunxi, his eyes full of murderous intent. Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything to Han Yunxi.
"Why didn't you collect the bones directly after killing them, but leave behind evidence?" Han Yunxi asked seriously. This was the part she couldn't understand the most. If she didn't get to the bottom of it, she wouldn't be at ease.
Han Yunxi was worried that there were secrets in this matter that they didn't know, so she asked in this way. But after asking, she realized that there wasn't any big secret in this matter. The heartless Lady Boss was actually a sincere person. The one-armed man wasn't the Lady Boss's husband, but the Lady Boss and her husband had been good friends for many years.
The Lady Boss's husband accidentally entered the Yinyang Lake and was sucked into the whirlpool at the bottom of the lake. When the one-armed man jumped into the water to save him, it was already too late. Although he grabbed his good friend's hand, the suction force under the whirlpool was very strong and pulled his good friend's body into pieces. The one-armed man only managed to save the Lady Boss's husband's hand.
From then on, the Lady Boss's temperament changed greatly. She carved her husband's hand into a necklace and a bracelet to wear. She stubbornly believed that her husband's soul hadn't left and had been waiting at the bottom of the lake for her to reunite.
The one-armed man had forgotten how many times he stopped the Lady Boss from jumping into the lake to commit suicide. Every time he failed to persuade the Lady Boss, he could only knock her out like just now.
When the one-armed man jumped into the lake to save the Lady Boss, he discovered that Mo Xie's Sword Spirit was hidden at the bottom of the Yinyang Lake. Helpless, he could only lie to the Lady Boss, saying that her husband's soul had already merged with the Sword Spirit. As long as she could obtain Mo Xie's Sword Spirit, she could reunite with her husband.
Thus, the Lady Boss stopped trying to commit suicide. She began to search for a way to subdue Mo Xie's Sword Spirit with the one-armed man. They learned that in order to subdue Mo Xie, they had to destroy the Sword Spirit's Evil Spirit and forge a treasured sword. In order to forge a treasured sword that could subdue Mo Xie's Sword Spirit, it had to be made of extremely Evil Gold. Thus, they spent a total of five years to find the Seven Evil Daggers.
With the one-armed man's swordsmanship and the Lady Boss's Bone Collecting Technique, they could have easily destroyed the corpses. However, the Sword Fire needed to burn for forty-nine days. In order to ensure that these forty-nine days would go smoothly and not be disturbed, the Lady Boss decided to commit suicide. They wanted to borrow the power of the magistrate office to seal off the Yinyang Lake.
The Yinyang Lake was originally a place that the people of Qingchuan City feared. In addition, the women who came to the lake were assassinated one after another. Moreover, they bled from their seven orifices and died horribly. Naturally, no one dared to come to the lake again. Moreover, if the magistrate office could not solve the case, they would forbid the people from coming near the lake.
They went to the Memorial Hall to collect the bones of the six women and set the Memorial Hall on fire. Firstly, they destroyed the corpses to hide the fact that they had collected the bones. Secondly, they used the Memorial Hall's fire to create rumors.
They had already planned that after burning down the Memorial Hall, they would rob and kill the Magistrate's women. Then, they would find a few witches to spread rumors that the Heavenly Fire would come to the Yinyang Lake. If there were any disrespectful people, they would be punished. In this way, the magistrate office would not dare to continue investigating the case. They would only send more people to guard the Yinyang Lake.
At that time, when the Sword Fire burned, no one would dare to go near it or interfere.
They planned to find the seven women's skeletons before they started looking for the person with the Fiendish Life. However, they did not expect Gu to suddenly appear by the lake. The one-armed man could tell at a glance that Gu was born on the seventh day of the seventh month. His fate was fire and he was a person with the Fiendish Life.
The seventh day of the seventh month was not a bad day. There were many people who were born on the seventh day of the seventh month. However, there were very few people who were born on this day with the Fiendish Life. The one-armed man immediately kidnapped Gu and put him under house arrest.
In the past two weeks, because of the Female Corpses Case, very few women came to the lake alone. That day, they found a woman by the lake alone.
The one-armed man could tell at a glance that Tsui Yun was not an ordinary woman. He also noticed that there were two guards hiding beside Tsui Yun. He was not sure about Tsui Yun's background. He was worried that Tsui Yun was after Mo Xie's Sword Spirit at the bottom of the lake. Therefore, he went all out and killed Tsui Yun and the two guards. He also asked the lady boss to take Tsui Yun's bones. He planned to start forging the sword that night.
However, when they killed Tsui Yun, the two guards sent out a signal for help. Only then did they know that Tsui Yun had accomplices.
Helpless, the one-armed man and the lady boss could only run away and wait for the changes. Then, Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi went to their shop. The lady boss did not find anything unusual. However, the one-armed man was very alert and suspected that Han Yunxi and Long Fei Ye were not there to sell the accessories. They were just there to test the waters.
When Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi left the shop, the one-armed man immediately left with the lady boss and everyone else. The two of them did not go anywhere. They just hid by the Yin Yang Lake and waited.
When Long Fei Ye drew out Mo Xie's Sword Qi, the lady boss could not hold back anymore. The one-armed man had no choice but to throw Gu out and fight. But who knew that Gu already knew about Mo Xie's Sword Spirit!
After hearing the one-armed man's explanation, Han Yunxi's face was complicated. When she looked at the lady boss again, she did not hate her as much as before. She frowned and did not speak for a long time.
Still, Long Feiye and Gu Qishao remained unmoved. Long Feiye's expression was as cold as ever, while Gu Qishao looked as if he had nothing to do with this old man even if the sky collapsed.
"Why are you so good to her? You're here for Mo Xie's Sword Spirit, right? "Gu asked disdainfully.
The one-armed man explained calmly, "She's a girl that everyone dotes on. I can't bear for her to be alone and without anyone to rely on."
"This has nothing to do with Mo Xie's Sword Spirit. You can coax her or lie to her. There are plenty of reasons and excuses. Why did you choose Mo Xie's Sword Spirit? You should know that even if you take Mo Xie's Sword Spirit, she doesn't have the ability to control it! "Han Yunxi finally opened her mouth.
"Why is your arm broken?" Long Fei Ye asked.
The one-armed man smiled bitterly. He didn't expect that he still couldn't deceive these people. He asked, "Who are you people?"
He looked at Long Fei Ye. "Are you a disciple of Sky Mountain?"
Actually, if it was someone from the Jianghu who had seen Long Fei Ye's swordsmanship, they could probably guess Long Fei Ye's identity. This one-armed man did not seem to be aware of the recent happenings in the Jianghu.
"You haven't answered my question." Long Fei Ye retorted.
The one-armed man sighed and finally admitted his selfishness. "I'm training in the Evil Sword Sect's Inner Qi. Although it's fast, it's easy for me to suffer from backlash and go berserk. This arm of mine, is precisely because I went berserk and crippled myself. If I can't find a treasure sword that can withstand my Inner Qi, three months later, my internal injuries will relapse. My other arm … I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it. I'm a blacksmith and my master forced me to learn martial arts. I've never stepped into the Jianghu and have no intention of doing so. I just want to keep this arm … "
The one-armed man looked at the lady boss and lowered his voice. "I just want to protect her for the rest of her life."
Long Fei Ye was surprised. This guy had suffered internal injuries and he did not see it. He pulled the man's hand to check his pulse …
