Chapter 14
When they arrived at the criminal prison, Qi Ya was there.
As soon as Di Jiao came in, Qi Ya greeted him with a smile, and patted the black box on the table, saying: "It was too late yesterday, so I didn't look for you, let's go to the Jiang Festival together today, you must spare time Otherwise, this box of good things of mine would be in vain.”
When Di Jiao saw the box, she was slightly taken aback, this box looked so familiar, it was so similar to the one Cang Linxue used last night, Di Jiao even suspected that it was the same one at all.Could it be that Cang Linxue went to ask Qi Ya for advice in order to make offerings for the Jiang Festival?
But Qi Ya will come to the criminal prison to block him, and it is true that Di Jiao specially invited him to go to the river festival alone before, but there were too many things yesterday, and he was dragged to the riverside by the vixen Cang Linxue. Feeling dizzy, Di Jiao really forgot about Qi Ya for a moment.
At this point, Di Jiao apologized hurriedly: "It's rare that senior brother still thinks about it, I'm so busy that I forgot, I will definitely go today, senior brother and wait."
Qi Ya: "Of course I have to wait for you, otherwise, what am I doing here? Go and do your work, and when you're done, let's go!"
"Okay." Di Jiao responded with a smile, and saw Qi Ya was sitting dry and no one served him tea, so she called a young disciple and asked Qi Ya to get a pot of good tea quickly.
Qi Ya laughed and teased him, "How sensible!"
Di Jiao joked with him again, and then walked in.After walking a few steps, the smile on his face disappeared instantly.He didn't know how many things happened before he was reborn, just from today's "serving tea" incident, Qi Ya's current status in the High Heaven Pavilion is probably not much better than that of Han Zixin who was kicked out of the sect.
The younger disciples' respect for him is only on the surface. Now the third senior brother is more like a transparent person in the Lingxiao Pavilion. No one seems to talk to him about such important events as the longevity tripod and Jiang Ji, let alone let him participate. .
No, Di Jiao thought about it, with the third senior brother's ability, wouldn't it be easy for him to know this bit of news?But on the day of the private school, he also said that he didn't know, could it be that he was just pretending?But why is he pretending?
Di Jiao thought about it, and finally came up with only one possibility, that is, the third senior brother wanted to deliberately discredit Cang Linxue in front of her.After coming to this conclusion, Di Jiao laughed first, this behavior is too naive, how hard is it for Qi Ya to do such a thing?
Forget it, anyway, he didn't see through the thoughts of those senior brothers in his previous life. He only knew that these senior brothers would at least not harm him, and they were the ones who loved him the most since he was a child, except for He Xiaofeng.
At this time, Elder Wu, Elder Chen, and Elder Helian were all in the punishment room of the Discipline Hall, and the three of them were summarizing the clues they had investigated yesterday.When they saw Di Jiao approaching, they hurriedly got up and saluted, their attitude was a little more respectful than before.
Naturally, Di Jiao also felt this subtle change. He smiled slightly and asked about the progress of yesterday's investigation.
Elder Helian: "It is true that some residents near the Qin Building saw a few young masters enter that building after the fire."
"Is this a portrait?" Di Jiao picked up a few pieces of paper on the table.
"The man didn't see it clearly, he just gave a general idea. The picture is a bit sloppy." Elder Helian explained.
Elder Wu pointed to one of them and said, "This man looks a bit like one of the few pickers captured yesterday."
Di Jiao let out a 'hmm', put down the portrait, tapped on the portrait Elder Wu pointed out, and asked: "The second son of the Xiao family who was arguing to see me yesterday looks similar to the person in this portrait? "
Elder Wu was startled, and once again lamented that Mr. Di knew things like a god, and said, "Exactly."
Di Jiao understood, remembering that the second son of the Xiao family had been staring at him at the riverside yesterday, and guessed that he was also impatient to say something to him at that time, but there were too many people at that time, so he didn't say it.
Now that the matter has come to an end, there is no rush to see him.Instead, Di Jiao asked about something else——
"How's the investigation of Chen Yu? And the Xiao family, have you dug up any new clues?"
Elder Chen finally had a chance to intervene, saying: "The Qinlou that caught fire used to be a Goulan, and it was Chen Yu who stayed there before. Not long after Chen Yu was redeemed by Master Xiao, the Goulan also caught fire once. Many people died. Later, the main house rebuilt the building, and it took two years before it changed hands."
"Then who is the owner?" Di Jiao asked.
Elder Chen: "I found it. It used to be a family surnamed Xuan in the main city. Now the whole family has moved to the Northern Territory. The Xiao family also checked. It was originally a silk and cloth business. A few years ago, it started to operate a medicine hall. Now the medicine hall has been replaced by the Lingbao Museum. There is one in every main city in our southern region, and more are located in the world, which is the "Zhenji Lingbao". I’m afraid it’s for this Spirit Treasure Hall.”
"That makes sense." Di Jiao stood up at this moment, "Let's go, it's time for us to meet that Second Young Master."
Xiao Feiyu quarreled all day and night, and finally hoped for Mr. Di to come.
The dungeon of the High Heaven Pavilion was dark and damp, but the moment Xiao Feiyu saw Di Jiao, he seemed to think that these were nothing.He rushed to the edge of the cell, grasping the iron railing with both hands, looking at Di Jiao with suspiciously hot eyes.
Di Jiao and several elders did not expect Xiao Feiyu to behave like this, and were slightly taken aback.
Elder Wu couldn't help shouting: "Presumptuous!" After shouting, he felt inappropriate and coughed in embarrassment.
Xiao Feiyu didn't care if he was yelled at, he still stared straight at Di Jiao, and said eagerly: "Young Master Di, you are finally willing to come to see me! I have something important to talk to you alone!" He looked down at the other people in the cell next door and opposite, as if he was afraid that someone would eavesdrop.
Several elders also watched Di Jiao hesitate to speak, but it was Elder Helian who spoke first, persuading Di Jiao, saying: "My lord, don't listen to his nonsense, be careful of deceit."
Di Jiao nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said to Elder Wu beside him: "Take him to the torture room, and I will interrogate him personally."
Elder Wu winked at the young disciples behind him, and immediately two young disciples stepped forward to open the cell door, tied Xiao Feiyu with immortal ropes, and escorted him to the torture training room.
Xiao Feiyu was tied to a cross iron stake, the iron stake was submerged in black bricks, and under the bricks was a hot molten molten pool.Now that the mechanism is closed, Xiao Feiyu can't feel the heat, but once the mechanism is opened, the fire molten fluid will be exposed, and people can be coaxed into ashes in the blink of an eye.That's how hot it is.
At this time, Di Jiao was sitting opposite Xiao Feiyu, with an iron chain hanging by his hand, this chain was directly connected to the organ, and with a light pull, the molten pool of fire under the green bricks could be exposed.
"Let's talk." Di Jiao approached the chair, and casually turned the whip handle on the side table.
Xiao Feiyu looked around again to make sure there was no one there, and then said: "I have something for you."
"Oh?" Di Jiao was a little amused, and said, "Do you want me to untie you?"
"This..." Xiao Feiyu really thought so, but looking at Di Jiao's attitude, he seemed to have doubts about him, so he quickly explained: "Mr. Di, don't get me wrong, this thing is inside me. I can't get it out."
"Tell me what it is first?" Di Jiao didn't rush to draw a conclusion.
"It's a magic weapon related to the witch clan."
"A magic weapon always has a name, so why don't you tell me what it is in your hand?" Di Jiao had a faint smile on his lips, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
Xiao Feiyu was taken aback for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "It's a scrap of paper from Yuhunbo."
"Yuhunbo?!" At this moment, Di Jiao was really startled, even the smile on his face was replaced by Susha in an instant, "Why did you have this? Why did you give it to me?!"
"My mother said that since I was born, this broken page has been in my body. When the old pavilion master was still there, she begged the old pavilion master to seal the power of Yin water on this broken page for me. I don't know what happened recently. , this seal was actually opened, I, I can feel a cold air constantly swimming in my body, like raising a fish fry in my blood vessels. This thing grows very fast, several times my eyes go dark, and then When I wake up, something terrible happens. I really can't keep it anymore, and I'm afraid one day I'll be eaten by it."
Xiao Feiyu spoke faster and faster, and at the end he broke out in a cold sweat. Panting heavily, he stopped, staring at Di Jiao more and more straightly, and said: "I know you are the most proud of the old pavilion master. No, to be precise, he is the person with the highest cultivation base in the water-type spiritual root. I am afraid that there will be no one in the entire southern region who can compete with you. Therefore, I will take this residual with the power of yin water Here you go, you must have a way to suppress it, right?"
After waiting for him to finish speaking, Di Jiao stood up laughing, took two steps, then suddenly stopped laughing, turned to look at Xiao Feiyu and asked, "Who told you that you can suppress the power of Yinshui by cultivating the spirit of water?"
After that, he opened the door of the execution room and ordered someone to invite Cang Linxue.
Cang Linxue came quickly enough, it turned out that she heard that Qi Ya was waiting for Di Jiao in the criminal prison in the morning, so she rushed over to stare at him.Of course, he won't let Di Jiao know about these small thoughts, after all, as the pavilion master, he can still gain as much face as he can, and lose a little less is a little bit.
When Cang Linxue entered the door, he saw Di Jiao's eyes were full of smiles at the first sight, and when he saw a guy on the opposite side staring at Di Jiao with straight eyes, he immediately lowered his face and walked over in two steps. , without further ado, he had to pull the iron chain, but fortunately Di Jiao stopped him quickly, otherwise Xiao Feiyu would turn into ashes and would not know how he died.
"What are you doing? There are broken pages of Yuhunbo in his body!"
When Cang Linxue heard Yuhunbo, and saw Di Jiao holding his hand, the coldness in his eyes finally eased, he let go of the iron chain, listened to Di Jiao explain the cause and effect, and snorted a sneer from his nostrils.
Di Jiao: "I also thought it was ridiculous, that's why I called you here."
Cang Linxue: "You can keep the broken pages, but this person can't."
Di Jiao: "Even if he killed those people, it's still because of the lack of soul control. There's no need to kill them all, right?"
Cang Linxue: "Take out the broken pages, and he can't survive. Since Yuhunbo can control his body, he has melted into his soul. Taking Bo is like tearing his soul."
"Then can't you think of a way?"
"I don't want to." After he finished speaking, seeing a hint of disappointment in Di Jiao's eyes, he quickly changed his words, "It's okay to try."
Di Jiao laughed again, but she did not rush to urge Cang Linxue to cast a spell, but turned around and asked Xiao Feiyu: "Did you understand what the pavilion master said? Now I ask you, who made it happen?" You came to see me?"
Xiao Feiyu pursed his lips, his eyes wandered, as if he was extremely hesitant.
Di Jiao: "My life is about to die, and you still want to protect that person? Why are you all the same in the Xiao family? What is this person holding on to you? If you don't explain everything clearly, just follow the pavilion master's instructions." Alright, we took the Yuhun Bo directly, and we don’t care about you!”
"Don't! I'll say, I'll say!" In the end, his little life is important, Xiao Feiyu hurriedly said: "It's Xuan Jinghai. He found me three years ago and said that there is a page of imperial soul book in my body. The stepping ladder that was given to me. As long as I practice properly, I will be able to ascend to the heavens. My mother told me about Yuhunbo eight years ago before she passed away, and told me not to tell anyone about it. After the seal was broken, I went to Lingxiao Pavilion to ask the pavilion master for help.
But she never expected that after she passed away, my father's attitude towards me would suddenly fade away, and the Xiao family would always be careful, so they naturally took the opportunity to treat me harshly.Especially that Xiao Shi, she simply can't tolerate my bastard living in this world, and tried to put me to death several times.It is because of this that Xuan Jinghai's words make my heart move. I want to become stronger and take revenge on Xiao Shi! "
Hearing this, Di Jiao narrowed her eyes slightly, and asked, "Who unlocked that seal for you? Didn't you open it yourself?"
Xiao Feiyu: "Yes, it is a very tall man. He is wearing a black cloak, and there is a layer of black air floating on his face. I don't know who he is. I just heard Xuan Jinghai calling him a master."
Di Jiao was startled, and turned to look at Cang Linxue, Cang Linxue understood the question in his eyes at a glance, and nodded at him.
"After that? You continue to talk!"
Probably because it was too cold in the dungeon, Di Jiao suddenly felt a little sore in his waist, so he raised his hand to support him, and in the next moment, he was pulled into the chair behind him by a warm air current around his waist and abdomen. Leaning, it just fell into Cang Linxue's arms.
Cang Linxue couldn't see any emotion on her face, she just whispered: "Be careful." She supported Di Jiao and sat beside her.
It was probably because his movements were flowing and flowing, so natural that even Xiao Feiyu who was opposite him didn't see anything, but Di Jiao lowered his eyes to cover the emotions in his eyes, and the roots of his ears hidden under the sideburns bit by bit Floating red.
Di Jiao gritted her teeth secretly, what was going on in Cang Linxue's mind? !Why did his thing stand up! ! !
It can be said that Cang Pavilion Master's attention has never left Di Jiao, of course he has seen the change in the ear, and as for the reason, he is naturally clear about it.
want to kiss.But dare not.
So, like the elders possessed by typhoid fever, Cang Pavilion Master hurriedly coughed, straightened his expression, and when he glanced at Xiao Feiyu, his eyes had returned to their usual coldness.
Xiao Feiyu was stunned by Cang Linxue, and said quickly: "After that, I started to practice according to the method given by Xuan Jinghai. He brought me to the Qin Tower, and every month he would send a Mr. Cairen to accompany me. I am a double cultivator. After the first month, I can feel the aura in my body soaring. By the third month, I can already feel the aura in my body. But no matter how hard I try, the aura will disappear from the fourth month. It’s just not big. I even went to Xuan Jinghai specifically for this, and he said that I have too much resentment in my heart, and I have to get rid of this resentment.”
"Your resentment? To the Xiao family?" Di Jiao regained his composure at this moment, and couldn't help but sneer again after hearing Xiao Feiyu's words, "He asked you to express your resentment towards the Xiao family?"
"Yes." Xiao Feiyu squeezed the words between his teeth, and finally continued in a broken jar, "Xuan Jinghai gave me a box of fruits, and the fruits were of different sizes, and he lied to me that they were the right fruits. He also said that after people who have enmity with each other eat the pair of fruits, the person who eats the secondary fruit can only obey the order of the person who ate the main fruit. In front of me, two pickers tried it for themselves. I Seeing the effect, I naturally believed it. I ate the big one myself, and deliberately found fault with Xiao Changyu, and beat him up with spiritual energy. When he learned that I had activated the spiritual root, he was very jealous. People inquired about how I enlightened the spirit, so I took advantage of the opportunity to push out this fruit, and sent the little one to Xiao Changyu.
It's just that I didn't expect that Xiao Changyu couldn't eat this fruit by himself, so Xiao Shi ate it.In fact, for me, being able to control the Xiao family is definitely more cost-effective than controlling Xiao Changyu. With Xiao's hand, I let out a sigh of relief in the Xiao family, but my aura still hasn't improved.
It was only then that I realized that I was on Xuan Jinghai's side.That fruit is not a match at all, but—"
Di Jiao said, "Scented kiwi fruit."
Seeing Xiao Feiyu's shocked face, Di Jiao's eyes were full of mockery.
He said: "Later, you found out that not only Xiao Shi was controlled, but also you. What's more, it was not you but Xuan Jinghai who really controlled Xiao Shi. Now, both you and Xiao Shi became Xuan Jinghai's minions , in order to conspire with the Xiao family, I had to bite the bullet and cooperate. Unfortunately, I often walk by the river, where are the shoes that are not wet? You never thought that when you delivered things to the Xiao family, you would be watched by one of the concubines of Mr. Xiao Seeing this, this concubine was quite scheming. Seeing this, she not only kept quiet, but also kept it a secret. It wasn't until a few days ago, when Mrs. Xiao and Xiao Changyu both died in Master Xiao's mourning hall, that she didn't tell her about it. speak out.
Tell me, where is Xuan Jinghairen? "
After Xiao Feiyu heard Di Jiao's words, the light in his eyes finally went out.He sighed like ashes, "It's because I overestimated my strength, I never thought Mr. Di would be so smart..."
He said this sentence very slowly, as if he was slurring his words, but at the end of the sentence, he suddenly clenched his fist and collapsed his elbow, and the fairy rope wrapped around his body turned into black smoke inch by inch in front of Di and Cang. Along with it, there was Xiao Feiyu's body.
Cang Linxue made a move as early as when he had any abnormal movements. However, Chiyang's real fire hit him and smashed Xiao Feiyu's body into a cloud of scattered black smoke.
In the torture room, only a lingering sound was left: '...Unfortunately...'
Cang Linxue said: "He borrowed Yuhunbo's soul-moving technique."
Di Jiao: "The Royal Soul Book has twelve pages in total, and it is divided into six yin and six yang. I got two pages for the two forms of heaven and earth and two pages for the power of five elements. If the power of yin and water in him is really the power of yin and water, then he is close to my goal. I'm afraid he took a fancy to my spiritual root and wanted to take my spiritual power to nourish the broken pages. However, there are many ways to get my spiritual power, so why go through such a big circle? No matter how you look at it, there are other things. What is your intention?"
"Hmph," Cang Linxue snorted disdainfully, took Di Jiao's hand, and said, "How can he get close to you without any means?" Can I die in the High Heaven Pavilion?
Di Jiao thought for a while, but said: "In my opinion, his purpose is not simple. It may be that his body has reached the limit of endurance, and he must find a way out for himself. He ran to us and said, Isn't this telling us that if you want Yuhunbo, you can cooperate with him? Another point is that he has long been dissatisfied with Xuan Jinghai. "
"Well, Ajiao is really smart. Since Xiao is manipulated by Xuan Jinghai, it is tantamount to Xuan Jinghai's eyes and ears. Now that he has been removed by the hands of Ling Xiaoge, even if Xuan Jinghai wants to get angry, he can't find his fault .”
"Yes, and the master Xiao who also ate the fragrant corpse kiwi fruit was probably killed by Xiao Feiyu's design quietly. In this way, Xuan Jinghai, who has no eyes and ears, wants to use the fragrant corpse kiwi fruit It's not that easy to control him—" Di Jiao was taken aback for a moment, then shouted "Oops!", opened the door and ran out.
Cang Linxue hurriedly followed, shouting 'you run slowly' from behind.However, Di Jiao didn't seem to hear at all, his feet flew like flying, Cang Linxue even suspected that he didn't look at the road at all.
Di Jiao rushed out in one breath, grabbed Elder Wu and asked, "Where's the Emperor Gu? Where is the Emperor Gu? Take me to have a look!"
