The master comes down the mountain: I don’t want to be a son-in-law

Zhou Shaoyi licked his dry lips. The blood clots in his nose made it difficult for him to breathe. His swollen eyes were also covered with blood. Only a small slit in his left eye let in a little light, and he vaguely saw the dim and empty room.

The pain in his body had numbed, and only hunger and thirst were still tormenting him.

He couldn't remember how long it had been since he drank water.

"Water..." He made a weak voice.

The door creaked open and a man walked in.

"Want a drink of water?"

The man walked to the table next to him, poured a full glass of water, and walked up to him.

"Tell me, where is the thing? Tell me, and there will be water to drink. Not only will there be water to drink, but there will also be fresh fruits and fragrant roast chicken. Tell me!"

Zhou Shaoyi's chest rose and fell violently several times, and a trace of desire flashed through the slits of his blood-drenched eyes, but he quickly lowered his head and became motionless.

"Oh! You can still stand it? Zhou, I didn't expect you to be such a man! Amazing! But don't you think about your daughter? She is currently receiving guests at a club in the capital! I don't know that she will receive guests all day long. As for the guests, if you tell her a minute later, she will suffer an extra minute. If you don’t tell her, you might even give birth to a grandson, and he might even be a black child! Hahaha... "

The man's laughter pierced Zhou Shaoyi's ears like a knife, but it did not shake his belief.

It's not that he couldn't bear to part with that thing. Compared to his daughter's life, that thing was not important to him at all. But he knew that if he spoke out, he would die and so would his daughter.

Only by gritting one's teeth and saying nothing can there be a glimmer of hope for survival.

"Hmph, let's see how long you can last!"

The man became impatient and poured water from the glass on Zhou Shaoyi's face.

Zhou Shaoyi stuck out his tongue and greedily sucked the remaining water droplets at the corner of his mouth.

……

In the courtyard of the Wu Family Courtyard, a man and a woman were walking in the pavilion.

The woman is graceful and elegant, and her manners are calm. Although she wears modern clothes, she has a classical and elegant ladylike temperament.

The man has a fair face, delicate features, handsome and free-spirited, but has a shaved head. He looks like a monk but not a monk, looks like a vulgar but not a vulgar. He has the same nobility, but his behavior is vaguely dominated by women, and he is accompanying him.

At this time, the housekeeper hurried over, stopped two meters behind them, bowed slightly, and said: "Madam, Mr. Li!"

The woman did not look back, but simply said: "If you still haven't spoken, there is no need to report again."

The housekeeper hesitated for a moment and said: "Madam, Zhou is a tough guy. Normal torture doesn't work. Do you want to..."

The woman stopped and looked at the man beside her: "Chengzhong, what do you think?"

Li Chengzhong smiled and said: "You are the queen, no matter what decision you make, it is right."

The woman smiled: "You, just open your mouth to make me happy! If I am the queen, then who are you? The emperor?"

"Of course I am your imperial concubine!" Li Chengzhong's handsome face showed a bit of infatuation, and he reached out to gently hold the woman's shoulders.

The housekeeper behind him unconsciously took two steps back, lowered his head, and did not look at them.

"If the soul-searching technique is used, it may arouse the public outrage of Taoism all over the world..." the woman pondered.

"What are you afraid of! As long as you get the thing, you can become the Pure Light Goddess and help me light up the lotus platform. I will get the true teachings of the ancient Buddha. By then, Xuanmen will be nothing! You and I have the final say in the world!"

As Li Chengzhong spoke, he suddenly realized that there was something wrong with his words, and quickly changed his words with a smile on his face, "Oh, you have the final say, I listen to you!"

The woman shook her head gently: "Back then, Emperor Wu of Zetian treated the world with mercy, so he couldn't come to my place, Wu Hongli, to ruin the reputation of the Wu family. Besides, even if Zhou Shaoyi doesn't tell me, I know where the things are."

"Ah? Do you know where it is?" Li Chengzhong said in surprise.

"Of course it's at Li's house," Wu Hongli said.

"Li family? Are you saying that Zhou Shaoyi gave things to Li Muchen?"

"Otherwise, why would the Li family be so protective of him? Not only did they save his daughter, but they also wanted to exchange it with my second uncle?" Wu Hongli sneered, "I suspect that Lin Manqing has mastered the Pure Light Technique, otherwise how could she have the strength to win?" Master Xiankong?”

Li Chengzhong said in confusion: "But without the Light Art, even if she gets the portrait of Emperor Wu, she will not be able to cultivate the true form of the Pure Light Goddess!"

"Before the great sage Emperor Zetian ascended to heaven, he used himself as a model to cast a statue of Pure Light Goddess. He also hid the Secret of Light in the Great Cloud Sutra and left his last words - 'Thousands of years later, when the three appear in the world, there will be a winner. If I come out, I will dominate the world."

Wu Hongli looked up at the sky, as if recalling Wu Zetian's glorious life.

"The Dayun Jing is divided into two volumes. The first volume is hidden in the Wu family, but the second volume is missing. We suspect that the first volume was obtained by Zhu Ming. In those years, my father also secretly sent people to investigate The Zhu family in Jinling got nothing. A few years ago, the Xuanwu secret realm was opened..."

"It was the meeting of Zhumen Town at that time. Both Li Muchen and Lin Manqing were in Jinling, and they both went to the Xuanwu Secret Realm. According to Master Jingquan of Jiuhuashan Huacheng Temple who also went to the Xuanwu Secret Realm, there were two scriptures in the secret realm, one of which was Jiuhua Secret Realm. The other lost "Great Light Sutra" in Huashan is the "Great Cloud Sutra".

"You mean, Li Muchen and Lin Manqing obtained the "Great Cloud Sutra" in the Xuanwu Secret Realm?" Li Chengzhong said in shock, "Then...if the portrait of Emperor Wu is added to it, wouldn't it mean that she first transformed her into the Pure Light Goddess? Dafa?"

"Hmph! How can it be that easy?" Wu Hongli sneered, "Without my first half of the Great Cloud Sutra, how could she understand the real Pure Light Heavenly Girl's Dharma? Besides, Emperor Zetian is the pure The reincarnation of the Goddess of Light is not a reincarnation, and it is impossible to cultivate a true pure light body."

Li Chengzhong breathed a sigh of relief: "Oh, it scared me to death!"

"Hmph, are you afraid that your ancient Buddha lotus lamp won't light up?" Wu Hongli's eyes turned cold and she said coldly, "You can also go to the Li family and ask Lin Manqing to cultivate with you to light up the lotus lamp together. , She is an ancient Buddha! I heard that Lin Manqing is a peerless beauty who has conquered the entire country!"

When Li Chengzhong heard the words "peerless beauty", his heart moved, but when he came into contact with Wu Hongli's cold gaze, his whole body felt bad. He quickly said with a smile: "Oh, my queen, as long as you are here, other women I don’t even bother to take a look. How can any woman in this world be more beautiful than you? You are the reincarnation of the Pure Light Goddess!”

Seeing that Wu Hongli's face softened, he felt relieved, put his arm on Wu Hongli's shoulders, and asked, "Then what should we do next? Go to Li's house to grab something?"

Wu Hongli smiled slightly, showing her confidence: "I have already had a chess piece in the Li family. Now it is time to make this chess piece come alive!"
