Chapter 389: The Three Elders of Huangshan
Su Jian and Murong Xiu finally escaped from the torture room and came to the study above the secret room.
When Murong Xiu was about to open the main door of the study, Su Jian took her hand and quickly hid behind a tall bookshelf.
It was late at night, and although the stars were shining outside, it was already early winter.
In a place like the border city, the early winter night is already cold.
The flame of the stove in the study has gradually been extinguished, and the whole exquisite study is as cold as an ice cellar.
Therefore, when Su Jian grabbed Murong Xiu's little hand, it made Murong Xiu feel a different kind of warmth and heat, and an inexplicable throbbing surged from his heart.
She just wanted to ask Su Jian what happened?
Unexpectedly, before Su Jian could speak, he actually covered her small mouth.
To be honest, Su Jian's palm was very dirty, and it was already too much to pull her hand, and he even had to cover her cherry mouth inch by inch.
Murong Xiu's wonderful feeling of excitement just now was suddenly swept away, and even a kind of disgust and anger rose towards Su Jian.
Su Jian was holding her half in his arms, this posture was too ambiguous, she thought that Su Jian suddenly thought about her-it seems that this guy is no different from Qi Wei Murong Mingzhu.
But Murong Xiu soon changed his mind about Su Jian.
The main door of the study was slammed open, and five people burst in from the outside.
These five people, led by Murong Feng and Murong Yu, followed by three old men in yellow robes who were immortal and fairy.
When he secretly saw the three old men from the gap in the bookshelf, Murong Xiu's already tense nerves became even more tense.
She felt that the martial arts of these three old men were far above her father and Murong Feng, but she didn't know why she was willing to come to Murong Mansion to be a guest?
These three people are called the three elders of Huangshan - the old man of light, the old man of Tiandu and the old man of Lotus!
It is said that these three old men are all half-immortals, not only proficient in various martial arts, but also good at Zhou Yi divination, medical alchemy, and the art of war.
If they lead the soldiers, they are first-class military advisors, practicing medicine is a doctor who rejuvenates their hands, walking the rivers and lakes is a peerless swordsman, and studying weapons must be a master of casting, and they are no less than Yuluzi and Jiangdongliu!
Three immortal geniuses like this don't have any desire for fame, neither take refuge in the imperial court, nor do they stand on their own prestige, but they are willing to take refuge in the Murong family as ordinary acquaintances, don't you say strange?
Murong Xiu held her breath tightly, not daring to make the slightest sound, even if it was a faint breath.
She knew very well that even if her father and Murong Feng couldn't hear the voice, the three elders of Huangshan would definitely be able to hear it.
"Big brother! Xiu'er and Mingzhu really caught Su Jian? We killed a lot of people tonight, and my brother always felt that this violated the morality of the rivers and lakes! After all, we haven't even figured out whether Wanjiantang is an enemy or a friend," Murong Yu began to complain as soon as he walked into the study, he finally still had a little chivalrous spirit and moral conscience.
At the same time, several people are also looking for the switch of the darkroom.
After Su Jian took Murong Xiu out of the torture room, he casually destroyed the mechanism, he even wanted to completely destroy the torture room, he hated the hellish torture room.
This undoubtedly created a lot of trouble for Murong Feng and the three elders of Huangshan and others.
Even for a high-ranking person like the three elders of Huangshan, it will take a little time to find the entrance to the torture chamber and open it.
"Second brother, you have been cowardly since you were a child, you are indecisive, and you always have the kindness of a woman in your heart, walking in the rivers and lakes will suffer a big loss," Murong Feng said with a serious face, "The news of the Shenhou will never be wrong, as long as we find the secret room, the answer will be revealed!"
"The people of Wanjian Hall are not loyal to the gods, even if they are killed, it is not too much, now the situation in the rivers and lakes is unpredictable, extremely dangerous, someone actually calculated on the head of our Murong family, why do our Murong family still talk about the morality of the rivers and lakes?
The two brothers talked as they searched for the entrance to the torture chamber.
Murong Xiu's nerves were as tight as a full bowstring.
Because Old Man Lotus was walking towards their hiding place.
She knew that her father had a cowardly temperament, and he would never be able to protect her in this situation.
"Brother Guangming, Brother Tiandu, there is a murderous aura in this study, have you ever felt it?" said the old man Lotus.
"It's not just murderous, it's still the strongest murderous aura!" In the rivers and lakes, apart from the gods of heaven and earth, there are not many masters with this kind of murderous aura," said the bright old man.
"The person Brother Guangming is referring to must be Su Jian," the old man said, "It seems that he has escaped again." “
"After all, there are not many people in the world who can trap him, and if the three of us brothers don't come, he will inevitably be reborn again tonight," said the old man Lotus.
"It's a pity that he still met our three brothers after all," said the old man Tiandu.
"It's a pity!" When the old man Lotus finished saying these four words, his palm was lightly flicked, and suddenly a violent palm wind surged out from his palm.
This palm force directly shook the bookshelf that Su Jian and Murong Xiu were hiding into powder, and the pieces of wood and shredded paper flew in all directions, and then fell one after another, piling up a thick layer on the ground.
However, to the surprise of the three elders of Huangshan, there was no one hiding behind the bookshelf - not even a single figure.
The three elders frowned at the same time, they rarely make a move, and when they do, they rarely miss, today's situation is too unexpected!
"The three seniors are too worried! Su Jian is not a god, and since he has been seriously injured, it is impossible for him to escape at the hands of Mingzhu and Qi Wei," Murong Feng said with a hint of ridicule in his tone, "The three of you should help us find the entrance to the secret room as soon as possible! At this moment, Mingzhu may still be interrogating Su Jian, and I am a little worried that this child will accidentally kill Su Jian because of his desire to save his mother!"
"Alas, it's all because we are usually too spoiled by this child, so much so that this time he caught Su Jian and took it upon himself to torture him to extract a confession, he should have notified my uncle as soon as possible!"
"Hmph, Mr. Murong don't deceive himself," Old Man Guangming snorted coldly, "Su Jian must have escaped and destroyed the secret room switch, otherwise with our brother's research on the mechanism, we can find out the location of the mechanism at a glance!"
"Then let's imagine under what circumstances is it possible for Su Jian to escape?" Old Man Lotus leisurely paced around the wall near the shattered bookshelf with his hands behind his back.
"There is only one possibility, and that is that he has already killed everyone in the secret room, including Murong Gongzi and Qi Wei," said the old man of Tiandu.
"No, they may not all be dead," the old man thought for a moment and said, "Su Jian is a person who pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, how could he be willing to kill Miss Murong Xiu?"
