Long Fei Ye and the others could clearly see that Bai Yanqing had come down from the mezzanine of the stone room! Then, were the hostages also trapped in the mezzanine?
"Where's Ning Jing? Bai Yanqing, return Ning Jing to me, otherwise I'll fight you! "
Tang Li was already half out of control. When he did not hear Ning Jing's voice, he was still calm, but when he heard Ning Jing's shouts, he could not control himself.
Anger, excitement, nervousness, worry, fear, and etc. All kinds of bad emotions filled his heart. If he did not see Ning Jing, he did not know when he would go crazy!
It was a good thing Long Fei Ye was holding onto him, otherwise he would have been taken down by Bai Yanqing.
"Return Ning Jing to me, do you hear me?"
"For a grown man, other than kidnapping women? What else do you know? Tell me! "
"If you have fucking guts, let them all go. Father will fight you one on one! Do you dare! "
"Bai Yanqing, you coward!"
… …
Bai Yanqing allowed Tang Li to curse and berate him as he wished, but didn't spare him a glance. All of his attention was on Long Feiye.
Their sweetheart had been kidnapped, but Long Fei Ye's reaction was completely different from Tang Li's. Cold as he looked at Bai Yanqing, not moving at all. It was hard to see through him.
This kind of calmness, this kind of calmness, Bai Yanqing admired him very much.
"It seems like the East Qin Crown Prince does not care about the life or death of his sweetheart." Bai Yanqing said with a cold smile.
"She will not die." Long Fei Ye's voice was as cold as ice, filled with certainty.
Bai Yanqing disliked Long Fei Ye's attitude the most, this kind of aloof attitude that seemed like everything was under his control. He coldly said, "It's too early to say, don't regret it later!"
"What a joke." Long Fei Ye's tone became even more sarcastic. "Bai Yanqing, you just want the two of us to fail in our dual cultivation and kill each other. You just want the Eastern and Western Qin sides to continue fighting. You won't kill her. You have to take good care of her. Otherwise, why would you find her medicine to prevent miscarriage? "
Long Fei Ye was actually anxious in his heart, but he had already calmed down after such a long time. A little while more wouldn't make a difference.
The hostage must be in the stone room. At the very least, Ning Jing must be there. There must be a trap in this stone room. Therefore, they must not enter unless absolutely necessary.
Even if there were no traps, it would be easy for Bai Yanqing to poison them in a confined space like the stone chamber. However, it would be difficult for them to avoid the poison in time.
The wisest choice was to waste time with Bai Yanqing and look for flaws and countermeasures.
He didn't believe that Bai Yanqing would be able to escape now that he was right in front of him!
Bai Yanqing didn't care that his scheme had been exposed. At this point, he no longer had the patience to play with this group of young people.
Today, he was determined to imprison Long Fei Ye.
Bai Yanqing finally looked at the furious Tang Li. However, he pointed at Long Fei Ye and said, "We can have a one-on-one duel, but he'll come. Those who don't dare are cowards. "
Long Fei Ye was about to answer when Gu suddenly laughed wildly. "Old man, you don't even dare to accept Tang Li's challenge. What right do you have to fight Long Fei Ye?"
Bai Yanqing wasn't so easily provoked. He ignored Gu and looked Cold at Long Fei Ye, waiting for Long Fei Ye to accept the challenge.
Other than Long Fei Ye, who else had Gu's cheap mouth lost to?
Bai Yanqing's indifference didn't discourage him. Instead, it aroused his fighting spirit. He said, "Oh, right! I forgot that you're a coward! Poison Girl said she was going to castrate you, but you didn't even show up! "
At this point, Bai Yanqing had already glanced at Gu from the corner of his eyes.
Aside from Long Feiye and Han Yunxi, he'd never really considered anyone else worthy of his attention. As for Gu Qishao, he only knew that the man was a test subject who'd survived a calamity thanks to medicine.
"Ouch!"
Gu suddenly slapped his thigh hard. The sudden and intense reaction made Long Fei Ye and the others look at him, wondering what was wrong with him. Bai Yanqing finally looked over as well.
Gu Qishao said, "Long Feiye, this old man suddenly remembered something! Tsk tsk, why didn't I think of it back then! "
"What is it?" Long Fei Ye asked. Although he didn't know what Gu was up to, he was very sure that Gu was putting on an act. He was very willing to play along.
Gu narrowed his eyes and looked like he was deep in thought. He said seriously, "Long Fei Ye, do you think this old thing is a eunuch? Otherwise, why wouldn't he dare to show up when Poison Girl threatened to castrate him? "
As soon as he said this, even Tang Li, who was still struggling, suddenly quieted down. The spacious corridor was completely silent.
Which man could stand this kind of provocation?
Bai Yanqing wouldn't be a man if he kept quiet.
He said angrily, "Shut up!"
Gu was a very strong-willed person. Since Bai Yanqing had ignored him earlier, he couldn't be bothered with Bai Yanqing now. He didn't even look at him.
He chuckled at Long Fei Ye and said, "Tsk tsk, no wonder. Poison Girl has always suspected that this old thing isn't her father. She said that they weren't related by blood. Maybe he really isn't Poison Girl's father! He could not do such a thing. No wonder … no wonder Madam Mu Xin followed someone else. "
"Gu, shut up!" Bai Yanqing was thoroughly enraged.
Mu Xin had always been his greatest weakness. Any topic related to Mu Xin could touch his sensitive nerves.
Gu smiled carelessly, his face full of disdain.
When he was investigating Han Yunxi's identity, he had thoroughly investigated the rumors about Mu Xin and the Poison Sect's orphan. He had heard several versions of the rumors.
Judging from Bai Yanqing's sinister actions and the fact that Mu Xin had left the Poison Sect to marry Han Congan, there must be some grudge between Mu Xin and Bai Yanqing. Perhaps Bai Yanqing was tormenting Poison Girl like this to get back at Mu Xin.
Thinking up to here, Gu turned back to Bai Yanqing. He rubbed his chin and asked seriously, "Old Thing, there's no one else here besides us men. Tell me the truth, is it because you … can't do it that Mu Xin abandoned you and even settled for trash like Han Congan? "
"Gu! This Old Man will kill you! "Bai Yanqing exploded.
"Kill this old man? You're neither male nor female, an immortal and indestructible thing. You think you're worthy? "Gu scoffed.
Bai Yanqing immediately raised his sword and charged out.
Gu shot a look at Long Fei Ye and Gu Beiyue before fleeing down the stone corridor.
This was the first time in his life that Bai Yanqing had been humiliated like this. He was so angry that he swung his sword and chased after Gu. Gu hadn't actually run far.
He had started fighting with Bai Yanqing in the corridor behind the right fork. Long Fei Ye had captured Tang Li and hadn't moved from his spot. He was basically betting on the left side of the corridor to prevent Bai Yanqing from escaping.
Gu Beiyue had already entered the secret room and quickly searched for hidden passages on the walls and floor. Ning Jing's voice had come from this room, so the hostages must still be here.
"Brother, let me go! Let me in!" Tang Li said anxiously.
"Try making noise again!" Long Fei Ye said sternly. His line of sight had always been in front of him. Although he couldn't see the situation on Gu's side, his attention was focused there.
The reason why he let Gu Beiyue enter the stone room alone was because Gu Beiyue was fast. If there were any traps, he would be able to escape quickly.
Long Fei Ye let go of Tang Li, and Tang Li really didn't dare to make any more noise. He had to be scolded before he could calm down. He looked into the stone room and prepared his hidden weapons, guarding against situations that could happen at any time.
In front of him, the sounds of fighting were getting louder and louder. Gu and Bai Yanqing were locked in a fierce battle.
Gu's swordsmanship wasn't as good as Bai Yanqing's. However, with the sword spirit of Mo Xie's treasured sword in his hand, in terms of martial arts, he and Bai Yanqing were on par.
He had also shown his trump card at the beginning and only fought with Bai Yanqing. Now that they had fought for more than ten moves, there was still no clear winner.
Bai Yanqing wasn't so patient. He had to vent his anger on Gu. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to take it lying down. Suddenly, he put away his sword and faced Gu's sword head on, closing in on Gu!
A complicated look flashed past Gu's eyes. He suddenly retreated all the way to Long Fei Ye's side. At this time, Gu Beiyue just came out of the stone room. Other than the mezzanine where Bai Yanqing had hidden, he didn't find any other mechanism.
Gu Beiyue wanted to talk to Long Fei Ye. Seeing that Gu had fled back and Bai Yanqing had chased after them, they became alert and didn't dare to be distracted.
Long Fei Ye frowned slightly. Why did Gu run back? Didn't he know to buy more time? Although Gu Beiyue didn't find any other mechanisms in the stone room, it didn't mean that there were no mezzanines or traps in the stone room.
Many of the Tang Sect's hidden weapons were small mechanisms. He often stayed in the Tang Sect. Although he didn't learn, he knew a little about mechanism design. In order to prevent others from discovering many traps and secret rooms, the activation mechanism would be hidden outside and guarded by specialized people. Tang Li's attention was all on Ning Jing. Otherwise, he would have thought of it long ago. If he led Gu Beiyue around the stone room to find the mechanism, they should be able to find it very quickly.
Gu lured Bai Yanqing over like this. Gu Beiyue and Tang Li couldn't move. They could only wait and see.
"Brat, don't run if you have the guts!" Bai Yanqing said angrily.
"Which eye of yours saw me run away?" Gu retorted. He turned around and said to Long Fei Ye and the others, "There's a poisonous aura behind you. It should be a group of poisonous snakes. Be careful of the poisonous gas!"
It turned out that Gu had specially come over to warn them! The group of snakes was behind them. Even with their hearing, they didn't detect any movement. It seemed that not only could this group of poisonous snakes spit out poisonous gas, but they were also silent when they crawled.
Bai Yanqing used poison as expected!
Gu Beiyue immediately took out his small golden knife. Tang Li was also on guard, holding his hidden weapon. When facing a group of poisonous snakes, they could only attack from afar. It would be troublesome if they were entangled by the snakes.
The group of snakes hadn't come close yet. Long Fei Ye was relieved to leave his back to Gu Beiyue and Tang Li.
He looked at Bai Yanqing coldly. "Haha, Gu, you're right today. Bai Yanqing is a coward!"
After Gu's previous "no" comment, Long Fei Ye's "coward" was even more insulting. Long Fei Ye was obviously doing it on purpose.
Bai Yanqing was completely enraged. "Long Fei Ye, just you wait. After I take care of Gu, you'll be next!"
