Volume 5: The Two Great Prideful Sons (Part 2) Chapter 147: Cock Crows at Five Drums and Soul-Returning Incense
The next day, night.
The day after Jiang Yulang promised Yao Yue that he would find Su Weiyu within three days.
Su Weiyun stayed in the inn, eating, drinking, practicing martial arts and meditating, and didn't go anywhere.
He killed Jiang Biehe and got rid of the harm to the people. After taking revenge, his mind was free and he decided to stay in the room quietly and wait for the three-day limit to be over.
If Jiang Yulang is not dead by that time, then it would be the time for him to take action.
"I'll just sit here and see how Jiang Yulang can find me."
Su Weiyun had been sitting in the room for a whole day and he was very patient.
Sometimes it is not easy to calm down and meditate.
For many people, it is actually boring to stay in the house for three days with only one person and a sword.
Ordinary people may be able to stick to it, but there are far fewer people who can enjoy it and be at ease. Many people will waste their quiet time in anxiety and restlessness.
At this time, reading is a good pastime.
"I roughly understand the detailed explanation of swordsmanship written by Lu Zhongyuan, but the content added by Yan Nantian in the last few pages is a bit too abstruse..."
Su Weiyun was browsing the book "Swordsmanship Experience" written by him and Yan Nantian, which Lu Zhongyuan gave him. He was confused and frowned.
He had no trouble reading the previous part recorded by Lu Zhongyuan and understood it immediately, but when it came to the content explained by Yan Nantian, it was too profound and difficult to understand.
——Lu Zhongyuan was still explaining the wonderful application of swordsmanship, and Su Weiyun vaguely felt that Yan Nantian was describing the profoundness of "Kendo".
"I heard that once Yan Nantian's 'Divine Sword Style' is used, all ghosts will be scared away and all evil will be eliminated. Even if it is a tattered, rusty ordinary iron sword, it can cut through iron like mud and cut off those so-called divine weapons in one stroke. It seems that the rumors are true!"
Su Weiyun murmured to himself, secretly admiring.
He has honed his "Thirteen Deadly Swords" to the twelfth form, and is only one sword away from the final success. He is eager to learn this sword, and then he can boldly try to figure out the fourteenth and fifteenth moves!
Those two moves can be described as shocking and world-shaking.
But after a long time, until late at night after dinner, Su Weiyun finally put down the booklet and sighed, "Haste makes waste. The Thirteen Deadly Sword Techniques contain a kind of crazy and murderous nature. If you force yourself to comprehend it, you will be worried."
He added more light to the lamp and took out the "Poison Sutra" to read.
He had previously made a small packet of "Ten Fragrance Softening Muscle Powder" according to the recipe in the Poison Sutra, adding various precious materials, but the quantity was too small, so he wanted to study the reason for the failure.
…
The day passed fulfillingly.
The moon set and the sun rose, and in the blink of an eye it was already the third day.
The sun is setting through the window, and it is another sunny day.
"It seems that Jiang Yulang will die at Yaoyue's hands after today. I will go to see him then. Otherwise, he will do evil things in his life and there will be no one to collect his body after his death."
Su Weiyun was in a good mood. He walked out of the room and prepared to call the waiter to bring him food and tea. Just in case, he put on the exquisite human skin mask before going out.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took a step, he heard a familiar voice.
"Senior Tong, it doesn't matter. Even if we can't find Su Weiyun, I can guess where the Yihua Palace traitor Tie Pinggu you mentioned is."
This person turned out to be Jiang Yulang. He and Mr. Tong happened to pass by this inn and seemed to be heading out of the city.
When Mr. Tong heard this, he suddenly stopped in front of the inn and said coldly, "Are you lying to me?"
Jiang Yulang hurriedly said, "How dare I? I swear to God, I absolutely don't!"
Mr. Tong's sleeves moved without wind, and a cold light flickered in his palms. He asked, "Then why didn't you guess her whereabouts two days ago?"
Jiang Yulang defended himself, "I only knew that Aunt Tie Ping fell into Su Weiyun's hands before, but after thinking about it carefully these past two days, I suddenly figured out a clue!"
Mr. Tong said, "If you don't speak well, I will kill you immediately."
Her tone was calm, but no one could doubt the truthfulness of her words.
Jiang Yulang was silent, his head shrank, and he said hurriedly: "I just figured it out. The woman who used the alias Tie Pinggu in Yihua Palace is the biological daughter of Li Dazui, one of the ten evil men who doesn't eat human heads!"
"It's because Aunt Tie Ping and I were not captured by Su Weiyun alone, but were jointly plotted against by him and Li Dazui. Aunt Tie Ping later hugged Li Dazui and cried and shouted, but I was beaten unconscious at that time and was unable to hear the conversation clearly..."
Su Weiyun was listening upstairs while Jiang Yulang was weaving at the door.
He made up a reasonable and seamless story to say that he had no relationship with Tie Pinggu, and it was true considering that Tie Pinggu turned out to be Li Dazui's daughter - she is most likely staying with Li Dazui now.
Mr. Tong gradually withdrew his strength and said calmly, "Take me to that small village. If I still can't see anyone today, that village will be your burial place."
In the past two days, her patience had obviously been worn out, and every word she spoke was full of murderous intent.
Su Weiyun just laughed secretly.
——This Jiang Yulang wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife at the beginning, and deliberately lured Yao Yue to kill Su Weiyun; he only thought that he had just met Su Weiyun once, so he must be in the city and would not run far.
But in three days he mobilized all the forces in Anqing City, searching from morning to night, but still could not find any trace of Su Weiyun.
So he had to change his words and really took Yao Yue to find Li Dazui and Tie Pinggu.
What Su Weiyun found funny was, "Could it be that Li Dazui is so stupid that he would stay there waiting for people to find him even though he knew his whereabouts had been discovered? The Ten Evils are extremely cunning, it would be strange if he didn't run away early!"
Su Weiyun was just about to go back to her room when Jiang Yulang said, "Senior Tong, I have been walking non-stop for two days and I am so tired. Can I go into the inn and have a sip of water? Just one sip will do."
Mr. Tong stared at Jiang Yulang with cold eyes.
Jiang Yulang acted very innocent and pitiful, and looked up at the sky again.
In midsummer May, the sun is indeed very hot every day.
"It would be inconvenient if I collapsed from thirst and couldn't walk . Besides, you are so noble that you can't force me to walk..."
Jiang Yulang was very thoughtful and kept lobbying Mr. Tong.
Mr. Tong finally nodded slowly and said, "Okay."
Jiang Yulang immediately ran into the inn: "Waiter, bring two pots of good tea!"
Seeing him enter the inn, Su Weiyun immediately pretended nothing happened and turned into the room.
Jiang Yulang sat on the chair and said, "Waiter, remember to order two pots of freshly brewed good tea, and the water should be boiled with fresh cool well water..."
He was still giving orders when Mr. Tong said coldly, "You only have one stick of incense!"
Jiang Yulang smiled awkwardly and said, "Okay, okay, one stick of incense is enough."
As he said this, he actually took out a stick of incense from his arms, blew up the fire, lit it, and put it aside.
Jiang Yulang said to the waiter angrily, "If you don't bring the tea within an incense stick of time, I will tear down your inn!"
The waiter hurried to get some water, boil the kettle, and make tea...
The incense gradually burned.
The white fragrant mist drifted everywhere, filling the inn with a mysterious and ancient atmosphere.
I don’t know if it’s because I didn’t sleep well last night, but the guests sitting at the table having breakfast all looked a little listless and drowsy.
The waiter who was running back and forth yawned several times, moved slowly and weakly.
Mr. Tong suddenly said, "I'm afraid your pot of tea won't be brewed within an incense stick."
Jiang Yulang actually smiled: "Yes, I knew it a long time ago."
Mr. Tong suddenly stopped talking.
Jiang Yulang continued, "But you don't know how much effort I put into getting this Rooster-Crow Five-Drum Soul-Returning Incense! It's not too unfair that you died under it today!"
Jiang Yulang suddenly leaned forward, and in just a moment he attacked Mr. Tong with three punches, two kicks and one palm.
Not only is it extremely fast and powerful, but it also combines the essence of almost all the moves from different schools, covering all the vital points on Mr. Tong's body!
