“Is she afraid of me? But why would a decent Mr. Li be afraid of me? And why would she use this method to bring you all here, to kill me by proxy? She knows who I am, and still uses such methods. It's not just to kill me, but also to incite enmity between the Taoist and Yin-Yang sects. Her heart is despicable!”
My words are firm and decisive, just as adaptable. Tao Zhi wants to facilitate the fact that I stir up the confrontation between the two factions. Why not throw this matter onto Ding Ruipu's head?
At the same time, my gaze fell on the coffin, inscribed words: "Heartless hides, unjustly concealed, vicious kill with a knife, Ding Ruipu, I'm right?"
“You don't want to say, I will help you say, when in Jindang, you treated my master Qiewazi how? What was your purpose? When you couldn't achieve your goal, you cruelly killed my master's fiancée. Afterwards, you had a falling out with the Dings. The Ding family may seem to have blood relations severed on the surface, but in reality they did not. You migrated to Yunduo County instead of ushering him into obscurity. Even after his death, your heart remained vicious. You stole his corpse and hid it somewhere unknown.”
"I have come here today to claim the body, and if you do not hand it over, the heavenly thunder will strike this place."
"This is not a rivalry between factions, but a personal grudge. Stealing my master's corpse is comparable to killing one's father, a crime that cannot be forgiven!"
The doorway's Tao Zhi was slightly startled, seemingly not understanding my words, but in reality, I clearly understood that with my speech art, I had thrown the problem and its contradictions out there!
No matter how much I speak, it's Ding Ruipu who is unreasonable, not me, Luo Xian Shen.
Tao Mingyi's eyes were shrouded with darkness, as if he wanted to lift up the previous large seal, but hesitated.
Xu Wange's eyelids twitched repeatedly, and his expression was silent.
They are both clever men, both no less than Mr. Ding Ruipu.
Their understanding of the deeper meaning in my words will become even clearer.
The old Gong on my shoulder laughed again, "Pity, two old men run faster than rabbits, but the old lady used you as a gun, uncomfortable?"
Eliminating both the body and the heart, that's all about old Gong.
I didn't lose my focus, and I still looked at the coffin in the hall.
Not only was I waiting for Ding Ruipu to appear, but also because behind this coffin, there was another person, who had just slashed me with his sword!
Dong, dong, dong...
Suddenly, the coffin lid was knocked, and someone was inside.
"Master Sun, please open the coffin." Tao Mingyi spoke faintly.
A person walked out from the depths of the hall. He was not tall, of average height and build, wearing a straw hat and a plain gray Taoist robe, with a sword hanging at his waist.
After stopping by the coffin, he pushed it with one hand, and the coffin lid landed with a loud thud, with the corpse inside staying motionless.
My eyelids twitched uncontrollably, staring at the Sun Daoist.
His face was thin, with a high nose bridge, and he appeared to be in his sixties or seventies, not particularly old, but his figure was completely unfamiliar to me.
However, the sword strike I felt before made me feel familiar with him. Why, he was someone I had never met before!?
I have mistaken the sensation?
At the same time, someone slowly stood up from the coffin, and the hall's lighting cast a reflection on her face, making her appearance extremely peculiar.
Her eyebrows were slender, with the kind of typical Sapphire eyes. Even though she was an old lady, her eyes still had vitality. Her lips appeared extremely full, and not only that, but her cheeks were very plump, with large earrings that hung down.
Her hair was silver white, but every strand was meticulously arranged. Her forehead, chin, nose bridge, eye sockets, and even the bones of her skull were particularly protruding.
When ugly reaches a certain limit, it's no longer just the word "ugly" that can describe it.
It's hard to believe that someone could grow up looking like this...
No wonder, her strength was so high at that time, the old Gong head was completely unfazed by it...
Ding Ruipu climbed out of the coffin, her brow furrowed slightly as she looked at me deeply.
"You don't resemble him. When he was young, he wasn't as decisive as you."
"I'm not avoiding you."
"I've hidden myself in the coffin, attracting the Yu Tai sect, the Wangji Dao Chang, and my other old friends to help me because I calculated that a fatal calamity was approaching."
"The theory of the fate divination says that it cannot be revealed in advance, as there will be too many variables."
Ding Ruipu's appearance was bizarre and old, but her voice sounded very young, and if one did not look at her face, they might think she was a middle-aged woman.
"So, do you admit to stealing the body of Qin Weizi, or do you deny it?"
The old Gong couldn't stop licking his lips, his eyes and facial expressions showing great interest.
To be honest, I'm a bit at a loss for words, not because Ding Ruipu is still looking for reasons, but because of the attitude of the old Gong...
He is very attracted to physical appearance. Any woman with some charms cannot resist him.
This Ding Ruipu...where is there even a hint of alluring him?
"Why admit it? Why deny it? It can only be considered as theft. It cannot be that after seeing him grow old, you still want his soul to scatter and wander, and his body to be exposed to the sun and rain, not finding rest?" Ding Ruipu replied cleanly and simply.
My hat on her head was suddenly removed?
"Just as a disciple, you are eager to find his body, and I feel at ease. However, the way you treat him may have some disrespect in it." Ding Ruipu looked at me with a touch of complexity in her eyes. Without pausing, she continued, "Moreover, what happened that year was based on your own hearsay. How many truths did you know?"
"I was both a teacher and a friend to Qin Weizi. I admired his abilities and thought he shouldn't remain unknown. So, I brought him to meet various masters. Over time, he started to overstep boundaries, and when I firmly refused, he kept pushing. Out of necessity, I had to leave Jindang."
"Whether his fiancée died or not is none of my business, but the fact that my Ding family's bloodline was cut off is completely fabricated. It seems that back then, Qin Weizi was too prominent, and someone deliberately suppressed him by hurting the people around him and then incited our relationship. I suspect his obscurity was because of this."
Ding Ruipu's words were delivered with ease and composure.
"Whether I am lying, the Yang God spirit on your shoulder can see it, and Master Tao and Master Xu can also see it."
"Then, this matter is just a small misunderstanding!"
Tao Zhi's face relaxed into a smile and walked towards me.
"Haha, it's just a misunderstanding! Good heavens, if there had been a conflict, how could I explain it to Wu Brother when I go back? How could I explain it to the Sige Mountain!?"
"Since it's a misunderstanding, resolving it will be fine! Tao Zhi doesn't need to worry!"
Tao Zhi stopped next to me, and my peripheral vision flicked to the old Gong. The old Gong tilted his head slightly, but he didn't point out that Ding Ruipu was lying.
Ding Ruipu...it can't be said that she didn't answer the question.
But how is that possible?
Fei Fang would never lie to me!
"The old lady is sincere, and I have a proposal for old Gong. I suggest that we go to your room and have a long talk. If the hex that predicts your impending death was caused by my master, I can resolve it for you. If not, I'll find a way to help you." The old Gong said, licking his lips.
"My master also gave the life force of my grandson, and you have to tell him where Qin Weizi is? Bring back Qin Weizi's soul, how do you feel about it?"
