Chapter 28 Twenty-seventh Black Stone

There are still blue sky, white clouds and sunshine in the high places, and there are still noises of the city, crowds and houses in the distance.The blue sky is still there, the world of mortals is still there, but it no longer belongs to Ma Rulong's world, and it is very, very far away from Ma Rulong.What Ma Rulong saw in his eyes was nothing but death!He was shocked, and he couldn't figure it out. Fortunately, when he turned around, Zhang Laoshi was already awake, and he didn't know if he woke up from worry or sleep?Or woke up from a drunk?Sometimes it is better to be awake than to be asleep, or to be drunk, because as soon as he wakes up, there is the same surprise and fear in his eyes.

Ma Rulong immediately asked him, "What did you see?" "I don't see anything." Seeing nothing is definitely more terrifying than seeing anything. Ignorance and ignorance are always the deepest fears of human beings. Ma Rulong said again: "Even if they want to trap us here, they don't have to tear down all the houses. They can hide in the houses and use these houses as cover." He couldn't figure out why they demolished these houses, and he hoped that Zhang Laoshi could explain.Before Zhang Laoshi opened his mouth, another twenty-eight big men rushed into this back alley with small steps.

Ma Rulong could tell that they were not the twenty-eight people just now, but they were also young and strong, wearing the same tight black clothes, and what they were carrying was not a canvas bag, but a black bamboo basket.The basket contained black round stones, as round as pearls and shiny black, they looked like black pearls and jade. Ma Rulong had never seen such a stone, and he couldn't tell whose subordinates these big men were.Such black stones are not easy to come by, and it is not easy to find one or two. There are not many in the world who can afford these strong men in black.The strangest thing is that they actually spread these precious black stones on the ground one by one, row by row, like transplanting rice seedlings.

Their movements were neat and quick and indeed effective, and soon a large area of ​​muddy clearing was covered with black stones.The baskets in the hands of these twenty-eight people were empty, and they rushed out quickly, and immediately another twenty-eight people in the same attire, carrying the same black stone, rushed in at the same pace.Ma Rulong was about to ask Zhang Laoshi if he could tell whose subordinates they were, and if he could figure out who could afford to support them, did he know what they were doing? He didn't ask yet, because he suddenly noticed a very strange change on Zhang Laoshi's face, a pair of dim eyes showed an expression of extreme fear.He suddenly rushed over and used the fastest speed to lift up the door panels of the grocery store one by one. He was supposed to open the door for business today, why did he suddenly close the door now?Ma Rulong didn't understand even more.Zhang Laoshi had already pulled him, and rushed into the inner room quickly.

The light inside was even darker, and the three people in the room seemed more tired and haggard than before.Zhang Laoshi took out an ebony bottle from his close-fitting clothes and threw it to Tie Zhentian. "This is for you," his voice was urgent: "You eat half of it first, keep the half, chew it up first, and then swallow it." Of course Tie Zhentian couldn't help but ask: "What is this?" "This is the jasper bead." Zhang honestly said: "In half an hour, half of your injuries can be cured, and you can take the other half at dusk, and your strength can be recovered by 80%." He suddenly sighed, He added: "I only hope that you can live until then."

There was light in Tie Zhentian's eyes.What he holds in his hand is the only elixir that can save him in the world today, and it is also the most precious and precious medicine in the world.But he didn't swallow it, because there were some things he had to ask clearly. "Who are you?" He asked Zhang Laoshi: "Why do you have jasper beads?" "It's none of your business." "It does matter." Tie Zhentian said word by word: "I, Tie Zhentian, have never received benefits from others for no reason in my life. If I don't know who you are, how can I take your medicine?" A man would rather die than do such a thing.

Ma Rulong interrupted suddenly: "You can take his medicine, and you can also accept his favor, and you don't need to repay him." "why?" "Because he is my friend, and so are you," Ma Rulong said, "among friends, no matter who has done something for whom, there is no need to mention the word 'repay'." Tie Zhentian didn't even say a word, uncorked the bottle, and swallowed half of the bottle of medicine. Wang Wanwu suddenly let out a long breath, and said: "Tie Zhentian, you might as well kill me now, I have died without regret."

Because now he already knew that the person who defeated him just now was not an unknown person.Only under the gate of Jasper Villa, there are Jasper beads.It is definitely not a disgraceful thing to be defeated by Jasper Pearl's disciples. Since you are defeated, what's the point of death? Although Wang Wanwu didn't say these words, Tie Zhentian already understood.Now everyone is convinced that Zhang Laoshi is a disciple of Biyu Villa. For hundreds of years, there has never been a male child under Biyu Villa's sect. Zhang Laoshi is undoubtedly a woman in disguise.Ma Rulong stared at him, and said word by word: "Now, shouldn't you admit it?"

"Admit what?" "Admit that you are the big bowl!" Zhang Laoshi finally sighed softly and said, "Yes, I am Dawan." This dishonest and honest man is indeed Da Wan, not the big bowl in the kitchen, but the Da Wan who is full of flesh and blood and dares to do something, it is the Da Wan that Ma Rulong has been thinking about all the time.Is she missing Ma Rulong too? Ma Rulong couldn't understand.Women's minds are not something men can understand.Da Wan stretched out her hand and touched his hand lightly with her fingertips; she immediately retracted.No one can control their emotions better than her.

"Tie Zhentian's strength is about to recover, Wang Wanwu doesn't deserve to die, and you don't have to die either." She said coldly, "As long as you have a chance, you can rush out." Ma Rulong was trying his best to control himself, but couldn't help but ask, "What about you?" "I……" Xie Yubao suddenly called out: "Why don't you ask me? What should I do?" Da Wan finally turned her head to face her, Xie Yubao's eyes were full of anger, fear and hatred. Xie Yubao said angrily, "Why did you make me like this?"

"I'm sorry for you." Da Wan said, "But you must trust me. I definitely didn't intend to harm you." "Why do you do such a thing?" "Because I can't let you marry Qiu Fengcheng." Da Wan continued: "We have grown up together since we were young, I will never let you marry that vicious person." Ma Rulong asked aloud: "Is she the daughter of Mrs. Biyu?" "She is," Da Wan said, "Madam Xie summoned you to Hanmei Valley to find a good husband for her." "You went that day too?" Da Wan nodded: "Not only did I go that day, but I also saw all the changes with my own eyes." No matter who saw the changes at that time with their own eyes, they would definitely think that Ma Rulong was the murderer. Da Wan said again: "But I think there must be another conspiracy in it." Ma Rulong immediately asked: "Why?" "Because there are too many coincidences." Da Wan said, "I have never believed in too many coincidences." ——The pit in the snow, Xiaowan's jade pendant, Jin Spear Lin's spear just pierced the jade pendant, Master Jue and Peng Tianba's timely appearance...these are all coincidences.Too many coincidences are usually specially arranged. Da Wan went on to say: "Mrs. Xie asked me to go there because she wanted me to choose for her. This matter is related to the lifelong happiness of the eldest lady. I must not make a judgment lightly." She stared at Ma Rulong: "So, I let you escape on purpose, just because I still want to test you, to see what kind of person you are?" —Buried in the snow, stretching out a hand on purpose, it was her first temptation. Da Wan said: "If you hadn't stopped to save me, you would have died in my hands that day." A desperate murderer would never take the risk of rescuing a strange woman, and gave her his fur and horse to keep out the cold.But this temptation is not enough, and there will be more temptations in the future. "After countless trials, I believe that you are definitely not a sinister and vicious person. I have already begun to suspect Qiu Fengcheng." Da Wan said: "It's a pity that this plan is so thorough and ingenious that even I can't catch any of his flaws." .Although I know that you have been wronged, I can’t do anything to cleanse you.” She sighed softly, and then said: “Because I have no evidence at all. To convince Mrs. Xie that you are innocent, there must be evidence.” Ma Rulong smiled wryly, "Even if Mrs. Biyu is willing to believe it, Master Jue and the others will not let me go." A person who has been identified as a murderer by those famous heroes in the world, how can he be the son-in-law of Biyu Villa. Da Wan said: "It was only later that I found out that when I was following you, Mrs. Xie had already decided to choose Qiu Fengcheng as her son-in-law, and even the date of marriage had been decided." Wang Wanwu interrupted suddenly: "I seem to have heard of this incident." "Madam Xie seldom changes what Madam Xie has already decided." Da Wan said, "Unless I can find real evidence to prove that this is Qiu Fengcheng's conspiracy." She can't find it.When Qiu Fengcheng did things, he never left any excuses.The most ingenious point is that he has clearly told Ma Rulong all the key points, but when Ma Rulong said it, no one believed it.Not only did they not believe it, but others thought that he was deliberately framing Qiu Fengcheng.Instead, he was even more determined to be the murderer.Qiu Fengcheng put himself to death first, and then escaped skillfully, because he knew human psychology well. Da Wan sighed again. "His plan is not only thoughtful and ingenious, but also so brilliant that even I can't help but admire him, but I'm not willing to watch him marry the eldest lady back." Xie Yubao also sighed suddenly, "At this time I have already come out, not to see Qiu Fengcheng, but to look for you." "I understand," Da Wan said softly, "No matter what you say, you always regard me as your sister in your heart." Xie Yubao smiled wryly: "But I never even dreamed that you would suddenly strike and stop me." Da Wan said: "I can only do that." Because she needs time to find evidence, she has to delay the wedding date that Mrs. Biyu has already decided.If the bride suddenly disappears, of course the wedding cannot be held as scheduled. Da Wan said: "After much deliberation, the best way is to hide the two of you first, so that others can't find you, and also let you gradually understand what kind of person Ma Rulong is." She then explained : "I deliberately let him know that you are a beautiful girl first, and also to test him, whether he can still control himself in the dark room." "So you also come to accompany us," Xie Yubao said, "Because you are still not at ease." Da Wan admitted: "If he dared to do anything to you, I wouldn't let him live till now." Xie Yubao suddenly sighed softly again. "You didn't misjudge him," her voice became very gentle: "He is indeed not a bad person!" Ma Rulong has been listening quietly, the key to this matter, even he did not understand until now. Tie Zhentian suddenly let out a long sigh, and said: "He is a good person in the first place, and this matter is also a good thing in the first place, but it is a pity that he, a good person, has made a bad friend." "A friend is a friend," Ma Rulong said: "There is no distinction between good and bad friends, because there is only one kind of friend. If you are sorry for me and betray me, you are not my friend at all, and you are not worthy of saying these two words." His attitude was solemn and serious, "I don't believe in God, I don't believe in Buddha, I only believe in friends." "I understand what you mean," Tie Zhentian said: "But, if you don't have me as a friend, your identity will not be exposed. No matter what, I will always get you in trouble." "Do you regret making me this friend?" Ma Rulong asked, "Or do you want me to regret making you this friend?" "I don't regret it," Tie Zhentian said, "I know you will never regret it either." In the vocabulary of "friendship", there is no word "regret". Wang Wanwu also sighed suddenly. "Seeing friends like you makes me realize that I have never made friends in my life." Ma Rulong's secret was indeed exposed because of Tie Zhentian, what about Da Wan?If it wasn't for Ma Rulong, who would know that she is "Zhang Laoshi"?Who would know that she is a disciple of Jasper Villa?If it wasn't for Ma Rulong, how could her plan be abandoned halfway?But she didn't complain, let alone regret it.Because if it wasn't for Ma Rulong, she wouldn't have done these things at all. Ma Rulong asked her again: "When we were trapped to death, of course you were the one who emitted that green mist?" "That's not fog," Da Wan said, "It's the 'Emerald Cold Smoke' from Jasper Villa. It's thicker than fog, and it dissipates faster than fog. Once the cold smoke dissipates, you can't see anything." "It's because of the emerald green smoke that you emitted, so they know that there are people from Jasper Villa here." "It's because they know that there are people from Jasper Villa here, so they dare not act rashly." Da Wan said again: "They don't move, as long as we can delay for a while, we may still have a chance, but it's a pity that the situation is completely different now, and we absolutely have no chance to get out unscathed." Ma Rulong asked: "Why?" Da Wan asked back, "What did you see just now?" Ma Rulong said: "I saw sixty or seventy people in black clothes." Da Wan said: "What else did you see?" Ma Rulong said: "I also saw a large pile of black stones."
