Ji Mo De Wu Zhe
"why?"
The old man looked at Wang Pingbei and asked. "Master, don't you really know?"
Wang Pingbei raised his head. "In order to verify whether what I said is true, they will definitely use the soul search technique. By then, I will be disabled if I don't die. At least I will become a fool."
Hearing Wang Pingbei's words, the old man fell silent. "Master, can you keep me?"
Wang Pingbei asked again.The old man remained silent.Seeing that he was silent, Wang Pingbei looked bitter. He already knew the answer. "You can't keep me, right? So, I don't dare to go back to Qingyun Tower. If I go back, I will die..."
"Maybe there are other turning points... After all, you are the pride of Qingyun Tower."
The old man said slowly. "Turning? Master, you should know how big the turning point is... After all, it involves the second floor, and they must verify it clearly."
Wang Pingbei shook his head. "I won't let myself take the risk to fight for this one-ten-thousandth chance...Even if I hide my name, it's much better to retire from the rivers and lakes than to go back."
"But you are the arrogance of Qingyun Tower, and your life also belongs to Qingyun Tower..."
The old man looked at Wang Pingbei seriously. "Yeah, I am the pride of Qingyun Tower, I should be born as a person of Qingyun Tower, and die as a ghost of Qingyun Tower. If Qingyun Tower wants me to die, I have to die immediately."
Wang Pingbei smiled wryly. "But Master... I am greedy for life and afraid of death!"
"Ugh!"
The old man sighed. "Master, I met you today because of your kindness to me over the years... After we meet, forget about me."
Wang Pingbei's eyes were red again. "Just treat me as if I died in the Absolute Heaven."
"Aren't you planning to go back to Qingyun Tower with me?"
the old man asked. "I'm not going back."
Wang Pingbei shook his head. "But as the elder of Qingyun Building, since I saw you, I will take you back."
The old man said slowly. "Master, are you going to take me back?"
Wang Pingbei looked at the old man with a more bitter expression. "Could it be that the master-student relationship between you and me won't allow you to let me live?"
"Ugh……"
The old man sighed again and shook his head slightly. "If that was the case, I wouldn't have secretly gesticulated for you, but would have taken you down in the arena...Even with Chen Xiao around, he can't protect you."
"I know."
Wang Pingbei nodded. After all, he is the pride of Qingyun Building. Once his identity is exposed, Xiao Chen can't protect him.Even Zhao Cangqiong and others can't do anything.Whoever stops him is the enemy of Qingyun Tower!
This is a matter of principle.It was also because of this that he thought twice before coming to meet alone.If he doesn't come and his master reveals his identity, it will be a big trouble.Of course, it is also possible not to say.But he still wanted to meet and say goodbye.Since his master did not reveal his identity in public, there is a high probability... that he will be spared. "Aomori and the others are dead, Qinglu is also dead...and you, who narrowly escaped death twice, show that your life is not worth dying for."
The old man took a sip of tea. "As a master, I will never send you to a dead end...Since I can come to see you alone, I just want to give you a way out."
"Thank you Master."
Wang Pingbei breathed a sigh of relief. "But... tell me the truth, Qingyun Pagoda and other treasures, where are they now?"
The old man looked at Wang Pingbei with lightning-like eyes. "Master..."
Wang Pingbei's heart that had just been let go suddenly lifted up again. "You lied to me just now."
The old man stood up slowly, a sense of coercion permeated the air. "A few days ago, the Great Elder went from Sifang City to Tianyuan City... The latest news is that all the people in Shanhailou also died in Tianjueyuan, and you are the only one who survived."
Wang Pingbei's heart skipped a beat. Qingyunlou knew that all the people in Shanhailou were dead?It seems that Qingyunlou knows far more than they imagined. "Pingbei, now...you dare to lie to Master?"
The old man's hand was gently placed on Wang Pingbei's shoulder. "..."
Wang Pingbei's heart trembled, and he subconsciously wanted to stand up.But there was a force from the hand on the shoulder, which firmly suppressed him, making him unable to stand up. "Whether it's the people from Qingyun Tower or Shanhai Tower, they are all dead...Only you are alive."
The old man said in a deep voice. "This, how to explain? They are all dead, where is the treasure? I'm afraid, no one knows better than you, right?"
"Master..."
Wang Pingbei was flustered, he couldn't figure out what he was going to do when his master asked him to meet.Since he was already suspected, why did he meet alone without letting other people in Qingyun Building know?It was precisely because of this that he felt that his master would let him die, so he dared to meet him.It now appears that this is not the case at all.Could it be... A thought suddenly flashed in Wang Pingbei's mind.Could it be that his master wanted to find out the whereabouts of the treasure from him, and then keep it privately?It's not impossible!
Quite possibly.If this is the case, it can explain why his master recognized him, but kept silent and asked him to come over alone.Moreover, there are no people from Qingyun Tower here!
In this case, no one will know that he handed over the Qingyun Pagoda and so on.Anyway, he disappeared, and even Qingyun Tower thought he was dead... Then the master can keep the treasure without anyone noticing.No... It's not that he didn't know it, he knew it.If he were to be disposed of again, it would be true without anyone noticing!
"Master wants to kill me to silence me, and then... swallow Qingyun Pagoda all by himself?"
With this thought, Wang Pingbei's eyes widened, his heart felt cold, and his body trembled uncontrollably a few times. "Pingbei, tell me, where is the treasure now... and Chen Xiao from Three Realms Mountain, who is he?"
The old man pressed the hand on Wang Pingbei's shoulder and clasped it lightly. "As long as you say it, I will give you a way out."
"Master...Chen Xiao is from Three Realms Mountain..."
Wang Pingbei tried his best to calm down, regretting that he had come to meet him. "From the perspective of the outside world, you are also from the Three Realms Mountain, and you are Chen Xiao's follower... No one knows that you are the pride of Qingyun Tower."
The old man shook his head. "So, I have doubts about Chen Xiao's identity."
"..."
Wang Pingbei's thoughts changed sharply, the master had already doubted Xiao Chen's identity, how should he make it up? "Pingbei, I know you well, so don't try to deceive me... As long as you tell the truth, how can I have the heart to do anything to you, I will definitely give you a way out."
The old man said again. "Master, Chen Xiao is really from Three Realms Mountain... He saved my life, and I happened to be unable to go back to Qingyun Tower, so I followed him."
Wangping North Road. "He was the one who saved you in Tianjueyuan?"
The old man's eyes flashed.At that time, Qinglu said it through the sound transmission stone, but he didn't mention too much who saved Wang Pingbei. "Yes."
Wang Pingbei nodded. "That is to say, he saved you and met Qinglu together. Later, Qinglu and Chen Jiangtao died, but you lived."
The old man stared at Wang Pingbei. "The nine-star spear and other treasures are all in Chen Xiao's hands?"
"No... no."
Wang Pingbei's expression changed. Except for Xiao Chen's identity, the others... are not too bad. "Chen Xiao..."
The old man frowned, if Qingyun Pagoda and other treasures were all in Xiao Chen's hands, it would be a little troublesome.Nothing else, Xiao Chen is too strong.It's not that easy to get back the treasure.What's more, he still wants to get the treasure without anyone noticing. "Master, the Nine Star Spear was snatched by Chen Jiangtao..."
Wang Pingbei shook his head. "Chen Jiangtao was not dead at the time, and I don't know how he died."
"You lied to me."
The old man's voice turned cold, and the hand that was on Wang Pingbei's shoulder moved to his neck.Wang Pingbei's body trembled, not daring to resist in the slightest.He knew very well that as long as the master exerted force, his neck could be broken, making him powerless to fight back. "Ping Bei, Master, I have been kind to you as much as a mountain, right?"
The old man's tone softened a bit. "As long as you hand over the treasure, I will not kill you, but let you go... From now on, no matter whether you follow Chen Xiao or hide your name, no one will know."
"Master, are you... really going to let me live?"
Wang Pingbei felt bitter in his heart, yes, his master is also a ruthless character... Fortunately, he thought that the relationship between master and apprentice could make his master let him go.Looking at it now, it was similar to what he guessed. The reason why he came to him without any publicity was not because of the relationship between master and apprentice, but because he wanted to steal the treasure for himself!
"I'm afraid, if I hand over the treasure, you will kill me immediately, lest I spread the news."
Hearing Wang Pingbei's words, a cold light flashed in the old man's eyes, and he quickly suppressed it again.He really thought so.This proud disciple is no longer available to him after leaving Qingyun Tower.What's the use of keeping it?No matter how proud it is, it is useless and becomes worthless waste. "How could it be? You are Master's proud disciple. In my eyes, you are equivalent to my child."
The old man shook his head. "The treasure is indeed in your hands... As long as you hand over the treasure, I will let you go."
"Master, since you have seen it, I will not hide it from you."
Wang Pingbei nodded. "That's right, Qingyun Pagoda, Nine Star Spear, etc. are all in my hands, not only them, but also the Dongji Shield of Shanhailou."
"Oh?"
Greed flashed in the old man's eyes, more than he imagined. "However, I didn't bring it with me, and even Chen Xiao didn't know... If he knew, do you think I can keep it?"
Wang Pingbei said again. "I buried them all in a place in Tianjueyuan, thinking about digging them out later."
"where?"
The old man's eyes lit up. "It's not far from Tianjue Peak... So, you probably don't have any idea, but if you have a pen and paper, I'll draw it for you."
When Wang Pingbei said this, he paused. "I wish I had drawn it, you could have spared my life."
"can."
Full of treasure, the old man let go of Wang Pingbei's neck.The main reason is that he is sure that he can handle Wang Pingbei.He is the master!
"You go in with me, there are pens and paper inside."
"it is good."
Wang Pingbei stood up, took advantage of the moment the old man turned around, and rushed outside.
The old man looked at Wang Pingbei and asked. "Master, don't you really know?"
Wang Pingbei raised his head. "In order to verify whether what I said is true, they will definitely use the soul search technique. By then, I will be disabled if I don't die. At least I will become a fool."
