Mysterious master reborn

Chapter 48: "Black Snake Headquarters"

Qian Dingdan looked back at Li Yan with a complicated expression: "Master, why did you ask such a question suddenly? Did you hear something from somewhere? Or something flashed through your mind?"

Although Qian Dingdan has been using the honorific title at this time, and the tone of his speech is very normal, but it makes Li Yan and Qin Mubai in front of him feel a little strange.

This strange feeling is like a kind of inner forbearance and restraint, a feeling that conflicts may break out at any time.

But Qian Dingdan in front of him, what exactly is he holding back?Restraining what?Li Yan and Qin Mubai still can't tell...

Li Yan said: "It's nothing, it's just that I found your big brother Zhao Xingyuan's aura from the group of people just now and the Taoist Ma Dian in Minglou."

After listening to Li Yan's words, the expression of restraint and forbearance on Qian Dingdan's face became more and more obvious, and his teeth were gritted: "Master, there are some things that I can't say right now, and I can't go into details. But there is one thing I can say to you." Your old man guarantees that from the establishment of our Black Snake to the present, we have never done anything harmful to nature or morality!"

Li Yan looked at Qian Dingdan who was trying to restrain himself, but did not speak.

Qian Dingdan was confused by Master Li Yan's familiar persuasive gaze, his whole body became hesitant, his pupils became dizzy, and his hand that was about to form seals loosened: "Master, look... I... we Why don't you go back to the Black Snake headquarters in Chuanhai City first? There are... some things... I will tell you all of them slowly and carefully when I get back to the headquarters, do you think this is okay?"

Regarding Qian Dingdan's continuous cues to the Black Snake headquarters in one sentence, and coupled with the anxious expression on his face at this time, Qin Mubai realized that going to the headquarters is not easy, so he quickly reached out to tease Li Yan's clothes.

But when his hand touched the corner of Li Yan's clothes, Li Yan also stretched out his right hand and patted the back of Qin Mubai's hand lightly, as if to say: "It's okay, don't worry, trust me."

Seeing that Li Yan hadn't spoken, Qian Ding'an quickly opened his mouth and asked again: "Master, let's set off now, shall we?"

Li Yan took his hand back from Qin Mubai's, stood up, stretched his neck, and said to Qian Dingdan: "Okay, then let's set off now to meet the Black Snake headquarters you mentioned!"

Speaking of this, Li Yan paused for a while, then turned her head and glanced at Qin Mubai, and continued: "Before I go, I have to send him back to his residence."

Facing Master Li Yan's agreeable answer, Qian Dingdan instinctively said "um" without thinking about the latter sentence.

Then Li Yan didn't hesitate for a moment, got up and grabbed Qin Mubai's hand, and walked towards the outside of the house, the speed was so fast that people were a little caught off guard.

In the car.

Qin Mubai glanced at Li Yan who was sitting in the driver's seat: "Why do you insist on going despite knowing that there is danger!"

Li Yan didn't face Qin Mubai's words directly, but looked straight ahead: "Old Qin, do you know! I just saw from the eyes of my second apprentice that his forbearance just now was very painful."

Qin Mubai also followed Li Yan's gaze and looked at the road ahead with one hand: "Well, I know. He has been working hard to restrain himself."

Li Yan sighed: "You must know that even if it takes a thousand years, a person's character and disposition will not change. The last time I saw his expression was when he was accepted as an apprentice for the first time. "

Qin Mubai asked: "What kind of situation is that?"

Li Yan said: "At that time, I was taking Zhao Xingyuan on a trip away from home and passed by a village called Chengjing. At that time, because of his poor family, he was taken as a slave since he was a child. To my biological parents... hey~"

"What happened later?" Qin Mubai asked.

"The moment he slashed at his parents with a knife, Zhao Xingyuan stopped him with a flying stone, and even taught that Qian Dingdan's so-called master a lesson." Li Yan said, "Hey~"

Qin Mubai's face was filled with disbelief.

Li Yan tilted her head, and quickly recovered: "In those days, slaves were [-]% obedient to their masters. Even if you were to die, few slaves would disobey."

Qin Mubai suddenly thought of something, and said to Li Yan: "Then why do you agree to his invitation?"

Li Yan smiled: "If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't get a tiger's cub."

***

In the well-known industrial park on the North Third Ring Road of Chuanhai City, Qian Dingdan was leading Li Yan through the park to a building called Industrial Building.

This high-rise building called Industrial Building has a total of 15 floors. It is relatively short in the park, and the shape of this building is also well-balanced, so there is nothing special about its appearance from the outside. , coupled with its relatively remote location, and this building has never been rented out or opened to the public, so there are very few people who come here.

Qian Dingdan and Li Yan walked all the way from the lobby to the elevator, except for the security guard on duty at the door, they never met anyone else.

Qian Dingdan pressed the button of the elevator to open the door: "Master is coming soon, take the elevator and we will be there."

"The headquarters you chose is remote enough!" Li Yan said, looking around.

Qian Dingdan smiled "hee hee": "Yes, master. Because metaphysics is no longer so respected in the general direction, we are now retreating behind the scenes, and what kind of studios are shown to the outside world? Limited company or something.”

Li Yan gave a light "hmm".

This is indeed true. Now that the four old times are broken and science is talked about, if anyone still establishes a sect to study metaphysics with such great fanfare, and it is the kind of research that can reach the sky and capture the moon, and catch demons and subdue demons in the bottom, it is estimated that it has long been regarded as Crazies and cults dealt with.

Take the elevator and go all the way down.

But when the elevator reached the second floor, it suddenly trembled, and then stopped without warning, as if it had reached the bottom floor.

It's just that Qian Dingdan didn't intend to go down at all. He grinned at Li Yan, then stretched out his hand and gestured a few times on the elevator door.

I only heard a very mechanical voice from the top of the elevator: "The hidden mode has been activated, and the activation is in progress."

"3"

"2"

"1"

"start up!"

As soon as the voice fell, another button suddenly appeared on the display interface of the elevator button.

After Qian Dingdan reached out and pressed the negative eighth floor, there was a sudden sound of creaking gears turning at the bottom of the already stationary elevator, and the elevator continued to go down...

After continuing to go down for a while, the elevator door reopened again, and the first thing that caught the eye was an impressively clear number of minus eight floors.

"Master, we are here." Qian Dingdan walked out the door first, and then said with a gesture of invitation: "This is the headquarters of our Black Snake in Chuanhai City, located 100 meters underground."

It is more appropriate to say that this is the ancient cave rather than the headquarters of the Black Snake.

Because there are bare stone walls all around without decoration, but the surrounding walls are very smooth like jade surfaces. Under the illumination of the embedded lighting, the entire stone wall is shining with white light, buling~buling~

As the two continued to walk in, the overall outline of the cave gradually became clear.

The entire cave is in the shape of an inverted trumpet, with a small mouth and a large interior, and the more you go inside, the larger the space.In this way, under the guidance of his second apprentice Qian Dingdan, Li Yan walked along the route of the underground cave lighting for about tens of meters and came to a stone gate with a black snake carved in it.

Qian Dingdan said respectfully to Li Yan: "Master, this is the place."

After all, Qian Dingdan pressed a button next to the stone gate with a picture of eight gates of anger.

The stone door opened in response.

It can be seen that there are not many opportunities to use this stone door, because from the opening and closing path of the stone door, it can be seen that there is a lot of dust on both sides, and the door shaft is not very flexible.

"It's very difficult to open this door!" Li Yan said to Qian Dingdan who was standing at the door.

At this time, because Qian Dingdan's back was facing Li Yan, Li Yan didn't see the tangled expression on his face: "Yeah, it hasn't been opened here for a long time."

As he said that, Qian Dingdan continued to lead Li Yan inside.

Behind this stone gate is empty, there is no smooth jade-like stone wall, some are just some deformed and protruding large stones, and the house behind this gate does not even have any lighting facilities, it is cold, humid and dark in mid-winter, there is probably even a mosquito fungus None.

At this moment, even the dullest person can react.

This is not the Black Snake headquarters at all, but an out-and-out confinement dungeon.
