The scholar is the white moonlight in the heart of the bandits

After saying goodbye, Zeng Ning turned to leave, but when he was going up the stairs, he bumped into the young master Murong Heng.

"Why are you here!" Murong Heng's voice was majestic and terrifying.

"Master, I..." Zeng Ning couldn't help clenching his hands into fists, then loosened them weakly.

"Did the second brother ask you to come?" Murong Heng asked sharply, "Answer me!"

Zeng Ning nodded helplessly.

Murong Heng laughed suddenly, and laughed loudly, "Okay, you Murong Cheng, you are so brave enough to bring people to this place."

Afterwards, he looked at Zeng Ning condescendingly, "Ordinary servants who dare to come to this place will die. I will give you a second choice today. If you agree, I will let you live. How about it?"

Zeng Ning was startled, and thought, "What a mess!"

"Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master is loyal to you and has no other ideas. I hope Eldest Young Master will let him go." Zeng Ning knelt down on the ground with a "plop" and said.

Murong Heng sneered, "You slave, how do you know if your master is loyal or not? Your top priority is to protect your own life."

Zeng Ning's heart sank for the most part.

"I'll give you the second way. You go with me to the Patriarch and expose the Second Young Master Murong Xuan for threatening his subordinates and intending to grab the Mirage Pearl by force. If you can't bear your conscience, you can come to me to sue, how about that?" Murong Cheng said.

"No...it can't be done, the second young master treats me as much as a mountain..."

"How much kindness can I have." Murong Heng sneered, "It's just to give you some snacks. You don't need to get up early, and you only need to work in his yard for half a day every day, so that you can be devoted to him. You slave, you should be blamed." Simple or should I call you stupid?"

Zeng Ning lowered his head, anxious in his heart, at this moment, he thought that the second young master would find out why he hadn't returned after so long, and come quickly to save him from the sea of ​​suffering.

However, it backfired.

"Aren't you going?" Murong Heng said coldly.

Zeng Ning neither nodded nor shook his head.

"Then I'll kill you!" After saying that, Murong Heng lifted his foot and kicked Zeng Ning down the stairs leading to the ground. He rolled and rolled countless times, and didn't stop until he hit a wall. After reaching out to touch the back of his head, he realized that it was already dripping with blood.

I saw Murong Heng stepping down the steps step by step, his face was as dark as stagnant water, he looked up at Zeng Ning condescendingly.

He stepped on Zeng Ning's body.

"Think about it, how do you like to die, I'll make it for you today, how about it?" Murong Heng said, "It's also a reward for letting me kneel in the family ancestral hall all night."

"Master, please forgive me!"

Zeng Ning was already so frightened that his liver and gallbladder were torn apart. Murong Heng's appearance was too terrifying. His face approached inch by inch. The more Zeng Ning could clearly see the bulging veins on Murong Heng's face, and the sound of gnashing teeth, it was like a wild beast. , like a ferocious dog in the dog training ground that can tear Xiao Li'er into pieces with just three or two blows.

There was a brazier on the side, and there was still a strong flame burning inside, and the coals made the sound of burning. Murong Heng felt that it was feasible.

He took a long knife from the desk on the side, stretched it into the brazier, and took out a piece of burning white charcoal regardless of the temperature of the steel after heat conduction.

"Stop!" At this moment, Murong Heng heard someone say from behind.

Turning around, he found that there was no one there, but when he took a closer look, on the other side of the underground tunnel, the mirage that he had seen locked in the water tank since he was a child was looking at him with disgust.

"So you can speak human language." Murong Heng laughed, "Why, you want to save this kid's life? You are not related to him, so why bother to meddle in this business."

"I'm happy!" Wu Yan said.

"Heh, I have killed so many merman in front of you, and you have treated them coldly, so I have the right to assume that it is because the merman expelled you, a mirage, but this kid is a human being, and he is making you lose your freedom." The chief culprit of the crime, you actually want to help him?" Murong Heng said in disbelief.

"You don't care!" Wuyan said.

"Of course it's up to me, because his life is in my hands!" The smile on Murong Heng's face gradually disappeared, and finally turned ferocious. He hurried back to Zeng Ning, and he said, "It's not that you don't want to expose yours!" How about Er Shao, then you should never speak!"

Then, regardless of the fact that the flames had already scorched the knife inserted into the charcoal, he picked it up with one hand.The big hand involuntarily squeezed Zeng Ning's mouth open, and in Zeng Ning's needless struggle and begging for mercy, he stuffed the charcoal into it.

"what......."

The painful screams made Insatiable close his eyes, and he wanted to cover his ears even more, but he was restrained, so he couldn't do it.

The charcoal scalded Zeng Ning's entire mouth in just an instant. He shed tears in pain. He felt the burning and pain in his mouth. Spit out the charcoal that exudes residual heat.

Murong Heng looked up to the sky and smiled, looking particularly terrifying in this secret underground passage full of mummified merman corpses.

"I won't let you go!" Wuyan struggled with the chains tied to his body, but every time it moved, the chains worn in the bones would rub against its flesh and blood viciously. After a while, the water tank floated Full of shark oil.

"Don't let me go?" Murong Heng laughed ecstatically, "Take care of yourself first, just what you look like? I advise you to hand over the mirage pearl early, so that our Murong family can let you live! "

"you......"

"As for you..." Murong Heng turned his gaze back to Zeng Ning, who kept vomiting burning coals.

The scorching heat had completely burned his mouth, and while he was vomiting coals, there was a mouthful of pus and blood, and he was even crying continuously.

too painful.

Hearing that Murong Heng was going to deal with him again, Zeng Ning raised his head in horror, his eyes full of tears were begging for mercy, and looked very pitiful.

"I still have to torture you slowly." Murong Heng pinched Zeng Ning's chin and smiled.

Zeng Ning shook his head in despair, wanting to beg for mercy, but as soon as his throat moved, he felt a sharp pain, and immediately coughed up black and red blood, which flowed onto Murong Heng's hand holding his chin.

"It seems that you have a good relationship with Nanhai Mirage. You should come here quite often. Shall I torture you in front of it, maybe it will make it convincingly spit out the Mirage Pearl, eh? "

Murong Heng's voice was soft, but it still reached Wuyan's ears.

"If you want the mirage pearl, I can give it to you, but you let him go!" Wuyan said loudly.

"Really?" Murong Heng turned around and said.

"Yes, if you let him go, I can give you the Mirage Pearl!" Wuyan said firmly.

Zeng Ning shook his head, he wanted to stop Wuyan's crazy behavior, although he didn't understand what the mirage pearl was, it must be very important to Wuyan, otherwise Murong Heng wouldn't want to get it so much.

"Snapped!"

Having already noticed the movement on the side, Murong Heng slapped Zeng Ning viciously, making him dizzy immediately.

"Let me tell you, if it wasn't for the sake of allowing me to get the mirage pearl, I would let you live until now, otherwise you would be a corpse now, I advise you to be more honest!"

After finishing speaking, Murong Heng walked to the water tank.

"I don't want it now. In a few days, it will be the night of the full fifteenth month. I will ask you to take out the Mirage Pearl that night."

"But you have to ensure his safety, you have to heal him quickly, otherwise he will die, and if he dies, none of you can get the Mirage Pearl!" Seeing Zeng Ning lying powerlessly on the ground, the corner of his mouth twitched. There were black and red blood bubbles, but looking at it and shaking his head at it, his heart felt like a stabbing pain.

"Okay, I will do what I say." Murong Heng's face was full of joy, his wish for many years was finally fulfilled, he was extremely happy at the moment, and the smile on his mouth couldn't be concealed, it was just a dog's life, and it was worthless compared to mirage pearls Mention.

After a while, Murong Heng went out and took the bottle back and threw it in the tunnel.

"This is for burns. Drink it straight away. It's good for you, but I don't know if you can talk anymore." Murong Heng's triumphant laughter echoed in the underground secret passage.He was very satisfied, he avenged the punishment for making him kneel in the ancestral hall overnight, and he was about to get the mirage bead that he had always dreamed of.

I heard from my father that this mirage is very old, maybe it was born earlier than when the Murong family got rich, and the mirage beads in its body can't even compare with ordinary mirages, if it can be eaten, it can't be You will be able to practice the "South China Sea Heart Sutra" handed down in your family immediately to Mahayana!

At that time, no one could stop him from becoming the head of the Murong family, and no one dared to look down on him because he couldn't practice the "South Sea Heart Sutra"!

With difficulty, Zeng Ning drank the potion Murong Heng left for him. The cold liquid temporarily relieved the scorching heat in his mouth, but every time he took a breath, he could still feel the stench of charred flesh left by the charcoal fire.

"Are you okay..." He asked with concern.

Zeng Ning nodded, and smiled at Wuyan with difficulty, his mouth was so sore that even smiling was difficult.

"Don't worry, before I give him the inner alchemy, I will ask him to let you go first. Then you run as fast as possible. The farther you run, the better. He is only thinking about getting my inner alchemy as soon as possible and swallowing it." , enough for you to run far." Wu Yan said.

Zeng Ning shook his head, pointed at himself, and then at Wushen.

"No, right now only one of us can go. I've lived long enough. You're still young. You're going to have a look outside. Take my share and help me see what the outside world is like now. That's it." As he spoke, crystal beads suddenly overflowed from the corners of Wuyan's eyes, as if they were strung together with strings and fell down.

This is a shark bead, a shark bead that can only be condensed from the tears of a shark.

Ordinary shark tears are only small, which is not enough for decoration. The shark pearls falling from Wuyan's eyes are round and plump, more like shark pearls extracted from shark dew, no, maybe more Flawless and prettier.

At this time, Zeng Ning has no time to care about the tears of the sharks. He just wants to go with Wuyan to see what the habitat of the mirage tribe looks like. He wants to see the rainbow under the moon with Wuyan.
