Chapter 99 Past Events

The guests left, and the prosperity faded.

In a new room, Xiao Ezi, wearing a bright red wedding dress, asked the strange groom: "Where is my brother?"

"Which brother?"

"If you are asking about Zhang Youliang, he has returned to Shexi Village. Calculating the time, he should be attacking Shekou Mountain now."

"The people of the Youshen Cult and your brother will join forces and should be able to take over Shekou Mountain soon."

The strange groom was a little unhappy and said coldly.

"Ah! You..."

"Why are you doing this?"

Xiao Ezi stood up suddenly, she felt deceived.

"Where is Brother Gouzi?"

"Er Gouzi? He should be dead at this moment."

The strange man said in a cold tone, as if it was only a dog that died.

Xiao Ezi was struck by lightning when she heard this.

"Why?"

"I want to see Brother Gouzi, alive or dead!"

The strange man grabbed Xiao Ezi's hand and threw her back on the bed.

"Sit down quietly."

"You yourself served the poisoned wine and killed him."

"Now the body is cold, what's the point of crying over the rat?"

Xiao Ezi realized that the wedding wine she personally served was a deadly poison.

At this moment, she really wanted to chop off both of her hands.

"You set up the plan, you killed Brother Gouzi!"

Xiao Ezi pointed at the strange man, her fingers trembling.

"Why are you so excited? His parents were also killed by your parents.

If he knows the truth one day, he will definitely kill your whole family in revenge. It's better to kill him earlier."

"So, Zhang Youliang is saving himself, and I'm helping you."

The strange man's tone was cold and indifferent, but the words he said shocked Xiao Ezi more and more.

"Why... why?"

"Brother Gouzi's parents are my father's younger brothers?"

Xiao Ezi instinctively felt that it was true, but she still couldn't believe it in her heart.

"Since you asked why, I will tell you in detail so that you can give up this idea and know which side you should stand on in the future."

"In fact, your father and his brothers are both peripheral spies planted by the Divine Cult in Shexi Village..."

It turned out that more than 20 years ago, Zhang Youliang and Er Gouzi's father, this pair of brothers, joined the cult for the benefit of a bucket of rice every year.

The two brothers became the outermost members of the cult. They had nothing to do at ordinary times, just acting as spies and occasionally receiving training.

But one day, Er Gouzi's father got a crystal-clear and shiny stone in Shekou Mountain.

The two brothers looked at the stone for a long time. Although they couldn't recognize what it was, they guessed that it must be a treasure.

Zhang Youliang's father said that they should hand it over to the Divine Cult to receive the reward.

But how could Er Gouzi's father be willing to give it up?

Why should he hand over the treasure he got to the Divine Cult! So he hid the gem.

If it was handed over to the Divine Cult, the eldest brother could also get a little benefit.

Now the younger brother has hidden the treasures by himself, and the elder brother can't get any benefit.

Every time the elder brother thinks that his younger brother has a treasure, but he can't get any benefit.

The elder brother is repeatedly tortured by greed and jealousy, and gradually a hatred arises in his heart.

Finally one day, he secretly reported his younger brother to the Divine Religion.

The information he provided was taken seriously by the Divine Religion, and messengers were immediately sent to capture the younger brother and his wife.

After a period of torture, the younger brother finally revealed the place where the treasure was hidden.

Afterwards, in order to warn the members, the Divine Religion sentenced the younger brother and his wife to death in front of all the believers.

At the same time, the Divine Religion also rewarded the elder brother who reported his younger brother.

He was praised for sacrificing his small family for the sake of everyone, and for sacrificing his relatives for the sake of justice, and he should be a model for everyone in the Divine Religion to follow.

As for the gem, it is a precious spiritual stone in the world of immortal cultivation, which can provide pure spiritual energy.

The God Cult got the treasure. In addition to rewarding his brother with a large amount of money, he also recommended Zhang Youliang to Zhengwu Hall to learn martial arts through his connections, and later recommended him to pass the martial arts exam.

Zhang Youliang's family also took advantage of this opportunity to rise step by step.

"Don't you think about it? Even the rich Huang in your village can't afford to support his children to learn martial arts.

With just a few dozen acres of land in your family, how can you afford to support Zhang Youliang to learn martial arts!"

"Have you never doubted the source of this money?"

"Everything your family has today comes from your brother Gouzi."

"Do you think you should kill him?"

"And how could the treasure land of Shekou Mountain fall into the hands of Ergouzi."

After listening to the strange man, Xiao Ezi completely understood the cause and effect. She sat alone on the bed and fell into deep thought.

It turned out that all the sufferings that Brother Gouzi had suffered were caused by his parents and his brother.

The good life their family can have today is all thanks to Brother Gouzi...

………………

On the other side, Er Gouzi was thrown into an underground iron prison, and no one cared about him, leaving him to fend for himself.

Er Gouzi lay on the ground for a while, then slowly sat up.

This detoxification pill is really effective.

The poison on the leg was completely removed.

But most of the detoxification pill's effect was left in the body, which was a bit of a waste.

He happened to drink another glass of poisoned wine, which was just enough to use up the remaining detoxification pill's effect, so it was considered to be making the best use of it.

When he took the cup of poisoned wine, he used his spiritual sense to check it carefully and found nothing abnormal.

After drinking a cup of wine, he felt something was wrong.

At that time, he almost jumped up and drew his sword to kill someone, and then rode a goose to escape.

But he soon found that there was still a lot of detoxification pills in his body, and such expensive pills were almost wasted.

So he simply took advantage of the situation and slightly suppressed the detoxification speed, allowing the cult members to carry him away.

Now, probably everyone thought he died of poison.

Er Gouzi stood up from the ground and moved his limbs.

The heavy sword that had been on his back was still in the living room when he was poisoned just now.

But there was still a magic weapon flying sword in his gourd.

With a thought, a magic weapon flying sword about a foot long appeared in his hand.

He kept this sword in the gourd for a while, and now it looks sharper.

He tested the sharpness of the flying sword with his fingers. I don’t know if the groom’s neck can withstand this sword.

Holding the flying sword, he gently scratched the iron chain of the iron gate, and the iron chain broke like cutting tofu.

He took out two pieces of talisman paper from the gourd and pasted them on his body, and his figure disappeared.

He opened the iron gate and walked out of the dungeon along the way he came.

Maybe today is a happy day, everyone ate too much, and there was not even a guard at the door outside the iron prison.

The cult's lair here is many times larger than the cave I saw last time.

Just from what I saw at the banquet just now, the cult has many times more people.

There is also an older man among them, who only showed one side. His cultivation must be at least the tenth level of Qi training, which is unfathomable.

If you meet that old man, you still have to be careful.

The invisibility talisman and the breath-retaining talisman don't seem to be foolproof.

I don't know whether the last official guessed it or had other means to see through his invisibility.

At this time, it was already dark, and Er Gouzi walked between the houses of the cult.

This was originally a village, with scattered houses, and most of the houses were inhabited by cultists.

However, he took a quick look and found that the cultists were a little short of manpower.

Many of the Qi training masters seen at the banquet were not seen now, not in these houses, and no one knew where they had gone.

Er Gouzi did not disturb the cultists to rest for the time being.

I remember seeing the spiritual field outside the village on the way here, and it seemed that there were still many spiritual medicines planted in it.

Let's go to the spiritual field first to take a look and find some spiritual medicines that can be used.

Outside the spiritual field, there was a cultist guarding at the fourth level of Qi training.

Er Gouzi sneaked over from behind and cut his neck with a knife.

This master of the fourth level of Qi training died before he even had time to shout.

The large spiritual field where pepper trees were planted before is now planted with Chaotian Gong peppers again, but they have not yet bloomed and borne fruit.

Er Gouzi already has this thing, and he did not destroy these pepper trees. He will pick them when they bear fruit later.

Passing through the pepper field, we walked towards the central area, the spiritual field with the denser spiritual energy.

In the middle, the one-acre spiritual field where the fire spirit grass was planted before is now a barren land with no grass growing, and the fire spirit grass is nowhere to be found.

In some of the surrounding forest fields, some spiritual medicines are sparsely planted.

Seven-leaf bone-succulent grass with five or six leaves, ginseng of eighty or ninety years, as well as earth dragon root, spirit gathering grass, dew grass, seven-star grass...

There are more than 10 kinds of spiritual medicines planted here.

It turns out that the cult is also very wealthy.

Er Gouzi was not polite, walked into the spiritual field, and pulled out all the spiritual medicines by the roots.

Generally, to pick spiritual medicines, you need to use a medicine hoe carefully and dig them out together with the roots.

If you pull them out by hand like he did, you will lose a lot of medicinal properties.

But these are not his own things, so he doesn't feel so bad about pulling them out, and he pulls them back for transplanting.

Pulling these herbs back, at least he had the main herbs for refining Peiyuan Pill and Healing Pill.

After stealing the spiritual field, Er Gouzi returned to the village to look for more valuable targets.

At this time, he found the largest courtyard in the village, which had many houses.

According to his experience of destroying several rebel armies, valuable things are usually in here.

He looked through the wall with his spiritual sense, and finally found a room with many bottles and jars piled up.

There was a copper lock at the door, but it couldn't stop him. He broke it with a slight twist.

Then he gently pushed the door open...

"Ding Ding Dong, Ding Ding Dong..."

Er Gouzi's foot hadn't stepped in yet, but it caused a rapid bell sound.

It turned out that there was an extremely fine line inside the door that was invisible to the eyes. The other end was connected to a few bells tied in the yard.

As long as someone pushed the door, the bell sounded.

At this moment, everyone in the yard was startled and ran out of the house.

Including the strange groom, and Xiao Ezi following behind him.

Anyway, everyone was alarmed, and they could not return empty-handed with the principle of sacrificing their lives rather than their money.

Er Gouzi rushed into the room, picked up a few bottles and jars, and put them into the gourd.

"Come out!"

The strange groom shouted loudly.

Xiao Ezi followed behind him, looked around, and saw no one.

"Is it Brother Gouzi?"
