As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Yan Tower, there was a sudden thunder in the sky, a bit like the scene of a fantasy novel, a lightning bolt flashed in the sky, illuminating the originally not very bright sky, as if it was foreshadowing something.

"Brother Jiu, what is the old witch doing at the top of the tower? Angering God? Chen Tiannan shrunk his neck and asked in a low voice.

I looked up at the sky, then at the top of the tower, but without speaking, I walked straight towards the Yan Tower.

"Brother Jiu." Chen Tiannan shouted at me again and said, "Look at your phone." ”

I was stunned, it's all at this time, how can I have time to look at the phone, just about to speak, he handed the phone to me, it showed half past six, it didn't seem to be abnormal.

Suddenly, I saw the weather in the upper right corner of the phone, which showed that the sky was sunny and the temperature was 28 degrees.

As soon as I saw the weather on my phone, I was stunned for a moment, according to the weather forecast, today should be sunny, and now this phenomenon, where is it like a sunny day? Could it be that the old witch really did something at the top of the tower that made God angry.

At this point, I was worried that Chen Tiannan and they would encounter danger when they went up, so I let them stay near the Yan Pagoda and not let outsiders approach, and let Joyce and Wang Chuyao stay on the ground.

As soon as I said this, they unanimously disagreed, and they wanted to go to the Yan Tower with me, of course I couldn't agree, so I could persuade them by talking badly. However, there are two people I still don't believe, one is Joyce, she said that the old witch is the murderer of Granny Joe, and she wants to see the old witch die with her own eyes. The second is Wang Chuyao, she said that she is a bridesmaid and the goddaughter of the old witch, and she must see it with her own eyes.

In this regard, I am really speechless, Joyce's reason is in the past, then Wang Chuyao's reason is simply nonsense, besides, when did the old witch accept her as her goddaughter?

In the end, I didn't know what kind of nerves Wang Chuyao had, so she actually squatted on the ground and cried, with only one sentence in her mouth, she had to go to the top of the tower, otherwise she would not be able to get up on the ground.

"Brother Jiu, you just take her there!" Chen Tiannan put his arm around my shoulders and gave me another look, which means that if Joyce goes, she will definitely follow.

I would come to my senses, and I didn't want to waste time on this, so I said to Wang Chuyao that I must follow me after I went up, so I led the two of them towards the Yan Tower.

This Yan Pagoda has a small door, about one meter eight high, very narrow, just enough for a person to enter, if it is the body shape of Guo Fatzi, it should not be able to enter this door.

As soon as I entered the door, I found that there was a cylinder in the middle of the tower, and there was a ladder on the side of the column, the ladder was spiral-shaped, the position of the ladder was particularly narrow, about only one meter wide, the more you went to the top, the narrower the ladder, and the position at the top of the tower fell down an incandescent lamp, which was very bright, and the situation in the tower was very bright.

"Follow me!" I said a word to both of them, and walked towards the stairs, not knowing what was going on, and as soon as I stepped on the stairs, I felt strange and indescribable.

The ladder in front is very easy to walk, it only took two or three minutes, we climbed to the halfway point of the Yan Tower, that Wang Chuyao said that climbing the ladder is tired, to rest, I didn't agree, just said, Qing Xuanzi alone on it is too dangerous.

Walking, walking, the ladder became narrower and narrower, and it continued to climb up horizontally, and only by turning sideways could it barely pass.

"Daoist Qingxuanzi." I shouted to the top of the tower.

I was answered by an empty echo, and I shouted a few more times, and it was still the same.

I'm a little anxious, isn't something wrong with Qing Xuanzi?

At that moment, I did not dare to hesitate, nor did I care that Joyce and the others were following behind, so I sped up and climbed towards the spire.

Soon, I climbed to the position of the spire, and when I looked up, this floor of the spire was only three or four square meters, and there was a table of eight immortals in the middle, and there were some remnants of tribute on the table of the eight immortals, and as for Qing Xuanzi and the old witch, they didn't even look at the figures.

What the hell, to say that the old witch is not at the top of the tower, I don't know the bottom of my heart. However, Qing Xuanzi was seen by myself when he came in, why didn't there even be a figure at the top of the tower, what about people? Disappeared into thin air?

"Daoist Qingxuanzi." I jerked out a few times.

"Ninth Master, where are they?" Joyce climbed to the top of the tower, looked around, and then cast a puzzled look at me.

I shook my head, not knowing how to answer her question, so I looked around seriously, no one, I'm pretty sure, there was absolutely no one at the spire.

I was stunned for a long time, and what I never understood was that Qing Xuanzi, a living person, disappeared into the spire inexplicably?

Don't... Hidden? Impossible, this spire is only three or four squares, and there is no hiding place at all, so how could Qing Xuanzi disappear?

I thought about it for a while, but I really couldn't understand why Qing Xuanzi was gone. Sometimes, I have to say that when people are in a hurry, their IQ is simply negative, no, then Joyce pushed me and said, "Ninth Master, look, there is a footprint on the table of the Eight Immortals, will they climb higher through the Table of the Eight Immortals?" ”

Hearing this, I looked towards the Eight Immortals Table, there were a few messy footprints on it, and then looked up along the Eight Immortals Table, and I saw a rice-sized skylight at the top of the Eight Immortals Table, which was full of red cloths, and what puzzled me was that the red cloth strips were a little yellow, and there was a faint smell of blood.

"I'll climb up and see, you two are guarding here." I said a word to Joyce, and then climbed up to the table of the Eight Immortals, first reached out and touched the strip of cloth, the feeling of my hand, wet, sticky, a bit like blood, put it in front of my nose and smelled it, my face changed, it was blood, if I guessed correctly, this strip of cloth was originally yellow/color, and the yellow strip of cloth was dyed red alive with blood.

Made, the old witch is really perverted, dyed with human blood. I cursed, grabbed the skylight with one hand, hung my whole body up, and then looked up at the skylight, and saw the most disgusting picture in my life.

I saw that the old witch was sitting on the edge of the swallow tower, her hands were on her thighs, her palms were half clenched, they were clasped together, her eyes were closed, and she had two heads on her left, and on each of those two heads stood a swallow the size of a fist, and on the right there was a head with a swallow the size of a fist. I know the three heads, one Songzi, and the other two are the bodyguards who followed Songzi, they seemed to have encountered something terrible before they died, and their eyes were very wide, and blood flowed out of them.

Seeing this scene, my stomach churned, and I almost didn't vomit it, Made, this old witch is really an old attitude, and she can do this kind of thing, and she is really not afraid of being split by thunder.

I suppressed the anger in my heart, looked again, and found a particularly strange thing, the blood that flowed from the eyes of the three people was actually flowing in the same direction, and at the end of that direction was a heart, which seemed to have just been dug out not long ago, and it looked very red. Incredibly, the heart seemed to be moving, I thought I was dazzled, and I rubbed my eyes, yes, the heart was moving.

I couldn't suppress the anger in my heart anymore, my hands desperately grabbed the skylight, stared hard at my feet, and finally climbed up, the first time I saw Qing Xuanzi sitting opposite the old witch, he did the same action as the old witch, his hands on his thighs, palms half clenched, clasped each other, eyes closed, the difference is that there are no heads on the left and right sides of Qing Xuanzi, but a group of black swallows, the group of swallows is somewhat familiar, it seems to be the group of swallows in the heart of the thousand-year-old pine.

"Qing Xuanzi!" I shouted, and to my confusion, Qing Xuanzi ignored me and kept his eyes closed.

"Daoist Qingxuanzi!" I shouted again, but he ignored me.

Now, I'm a little anxious, isn't it..., no, no. I walked towards him, and because I was standing at the tip of the Yan Tower, the wind above it was very strong, and it was whirring, and my body was a little unstable, and I almost fell.

When I came to him, the swallows stared at me motionlessly, as if they didn't see me.

I took a few deep breaths, ignored the group of swallows, grabbed Qing Xuanzi's shoulder with one hand, and shook it, his eyes were still closed, and he didn't speak. This frightened me, shook it again, and shouted, "Daoist Qingxuanzi." ”

He shouted three times in a row, but he remained motionless. I chuckled in my heart, is he really dead?

At this point, I reached out and rolled his eyes, which was normal, and probed his snort again, breathing.

Discovering this phenomenon, I wondered, this is so good, why didn't it react?

Suddenly, I suddenly remembered a possibility, Lao Xiucai told me before, he said that every person who learns the Tao has a state of cultivation, called the empty underworld period, in popular words to explain that it is to enter the concentration, once the Taoist priest falls into the empty underworld period, it is said that the six senses are closed, and he is unaware of the things outside, I replied to Lao Xiucai at the time, taking a few sleeping pills also has this effect, he scolded me for not carving rotten wood.

Could it be that Qing Xuanzi has fallen into the void period? No, I remember Lao Xiucai said that the Void Period is a state of cultivation for Taoist priests, but the current situation is similar to the sacrifice, and to put it bluntly, it is to sacrifice to the sky, and Qing Xuanzi uses the sacrifice to the sky to cultivate?

"Dao Chief!" I shouted out to Qing Xuanzi again, but he still ignored me.

In desperation, I didn't call Qing Xuanzi again, he was breathing, which means that his life is fine, as long as his life is fine, as for what he is doing, wait until he wakes up and ask.

At that moment, I turned my head and walked over to the old witch, and also pushed her, but there was no response, exactly the same as Qing Xuanzi's state.

Seeing this, I sneered, this old witch has harmed countless people, if she is killed at this time, it will just take revenge on Su Mengke, and it will also be just to relieve the hatred in my heart.

Without any hesitation, I grabbed her neck, and my mind couldn't help but think of Su Mengke's appearance, her beauty, her smile, her crying, and her smile at the moment when she blocked the bullet for me.

She said, Brother Jiu, I found that I really like you, like your laughter, like your sweat, and like your persistent appearance.

She said, Brother Jiu, don't speak, I want you to remember what I look like now.

She said, Brother Jiu, if there is an afterlife, you remember to marry me.

She said, Brother Nine, I... I want to touch your face,

She said,.........。

The past flashed in front of my eyes like a movie clip, scene by scene, thinking, thinking, I couldn't help but increase the intensity at hand, as long as I strangle her, it was all over, it was over.

"Mengke, I'm going to avenge you." I shouted as I looked up to the sky, tears welling up in my eyes.

As soon as the words fell, the thunder in the sky suddenly became louder, followed by a majestic rain, raindrops the size of beans, slapping on my face one by one, making a 'chirp' sound.

At this moment, that Joyce suddenly appeared, and when she saw me holding the old witch's neck with one hand, her face changed, and she shouted: "Chen Jiu, you are crazy, you are a murderer, you are going to be in prison, let her go quickly, and hand her over to the police." ”

I turned my head and glanced at her, and the strength on my hand couldn't help but lose a little, but, thinking of what happened to Su Mengke, my mind was full of hatred, and I just wanted to strangle her, and only by strangling her could I comfort Mengke's spirit in the sky.

"Chen Jiu, you're crazy, you must be crazy." Then Joyce walked in my direction and said: "Ninth Master, my Ninth Master, can you put away your hatred and see clearly what kind of society is now, a society governed by law, the rule of law in the world, the old witch has committed a heinous crime, and she will be punished by law, you don't need to take your life, you think about your uncle and aunt, think about me, think about Tiannan, think about Guo Fatzi, is it really worth it?" ”

"I—" I was stunned for a moment when she said this, but my mind could not get rid of what happened to Mengke, she was so bitter that I couldn't describe it in words, and I knew that it was all caused by the old witch.

Seeing that I didn't react, Joyce was a little anxious, took two steps towards me, and said, "Ninth Master, I know that you hate the old witch, I hate her too, I hate her for killing grandma, and I hate her even more for ruining grandma's next life." ”

As she spoke, she began to cry and sobbed, "But I can't kill her with my own hands, I can't!" Because she's grandma's biological daughter, I can't do it. Similarly, she is Su Su's biological mother, no matter how bad or evil she is, she has raised Su Su for more than ten years, this is an indelible fact, I believe that Su Su lives in heaven and will not want to see you be accused of being a murderer for her. ”

As soon as I heard this, my mind cleared up a little, she was right, the old witch has raised Mengke for more than ten years, this is kindness. Mengke is willing to die for the old witch, it should also be for the sake of this kindness, if I strangle the old witch, it will be tantamount to making Mengke an ungrateful person, after all, I am Mengke's nominal husband.

However, if I don't strangle her now, when she wakes up, I have no chance to take revenge, even if I call the police, with the relationship of the Su family, I can't do anything in the end, and I still live chic.

I was in a dilemma, on the one hand, I wanted to strangle her to avenge Mengke, on the other hand, I couldn't strangle her, these two contradictory thoughts, in my mind kept spinning, I am not a saint, nor is I a perfect person, in the face of hatred, I am the same as ordinary people, the same impulsive, the same crooked thoughts.
