Chapter 4: The Devil's Treasure, Tian Can Blood Jade
At the beginning of the ninth month, seeing him trust himself so much, he was deeply moved and no longer hesitated. He nodded and stretched out his hand to take out a package from Wu Gou's arms. After taking it out, Lin Meng'er took a look and found that it was just an ordinary white handkerchief wrapped in a bundle. When Madame Wan Dao took it out of the black sandalwood box that day, Chu Jiu had a glimpse of it, but now when he held it in his hand, it felt like a cold and inexplicable piece of ice. Chu Jiu's body was already feeling cold and weak all over, and this white handkerchief made him shiver even more! The two strands of cold air on the blood jade actually chased after the Ren and Du meridians!
That thing wrapped in the middle, at first glance, was too lazy to open it, didn't even look at it, and directly put it into his arms. A pair of eyes just stared firmly at Wu Gou Long Lao, meaning that he would not take a look in the future, but would directly hand it over to the people in the valley, please rest assured, Wu Gou Long Lao!
On the ninth day, a few days ago, when Wu Gou Long Lao dug out this thing in the Tiankeng Dige, he was curious and wanted to see its true appearance. Now it's in his own arms, but he doesn't want to look at it! The people of that time no longer exist, Wan Dao Fu Ren is dead, Wu Gou Long Lao and himself... Who can predict the changes of all things in the world?
"...Later, Mr. Chu Qi will take you to the valley and hand over this 'Tian Can Xue Yu' to the woman in the valley. Please help me deliver a message, saying that I, Wu Gou, and my wife Jin Wan Dao, have not failed the trust of our holy teachings and have brought this item intact!" Wu Gou's face was resolute, for him, living and dying for the holy teachings was the most normal thing! He had been listening to everyone's conversation while he was unconscious earlier, so he also knew Mr. Chu Qi's name. Seeing that Mr. Chu Qi was a man of integrity, although they didn't know each other, Wu Gou knew he wasn't a deceitful person. Hearing him say he would take Chuyi into the valley, Wu Gou was certain that Mr. Chu Qi must be acquainted with someone in the valley!
On the ninth day, Lin Meng'er nodded slightly, and only then did she understand that the person in the valley was actually a woman!
However, Wu Gou's heart was also slightly uneasy. This "Tian Can Xue Yu" had been passed down through the ages and had always been kept within the Holy Sect by successive generations of sect leaders, holy girls or elder saints. Now that it was to be handed over to Chu Mu, a direct disciple of the Orthodox Sect, if there were any negligence or loss, damage, or if it fell into the hands of the Seven Great Sects, the responsibility would be too great and the consequences too severe, simply unimaginable!
However, he had seen countless people and this young man, although injured at the moment, was absolutely a trustworthy person. He couldn't help but smile slightly, what did life and death mean to him? But whether the survival of the Holy Teachings was more important than his own life and death!
On the ninth day, my heart is filled with sorrow and desolation. In this world of Jianghu, various sects and schools are fighting to the death for the small treasure "Tian Can Xue Yu" in their possession. Even the four major sects have sent out their top masters, with some even having their leaders personally attend, surrounding and ambushing the Demon Cult's elder, determined to seize this tiny jade!
But now the most mysterious and priceless treasure of the demonic sect that everyone in this world wants to get is in his own hands, but he has no mood to open it and see what this "Tian Can Xue Yu" is. At the beginning of the ninth day, thinking of this world, he couldn't help feeling extremely disgusted!
Lin Meng'er sobbed softly and said, "Elder Wu Kui, please rest assured that Master will definitely keep his promise. What's the second matter?" She still remembered Elder Wu Kui's three major entrustments, but only one had been mentioned so far.
"…The second thing is... Miss Lin, the Flying Eagle Divine Letter is in Xiaowei's waist, please go and retrieve it for me, and when you see our Holy Sect Master, please help return this letter to him. Unfortunately, I no longer have the chance to investigate who the traitor of our Holy Sect is. Xiaojiu, little brother, if you have the opportunity in the future, please help investigate and inform Xiaowei and me, I will be eternally grateful even after I pass away!" Wu Gou Long Lao said gently, glancing at his wife beside him, to Lin Mei'er and Chuijiu.
He said "Xiao Wan" and thought of the thirty years of marriage, but today they went to the Yellow Spring together. His wife's heart towards him can be considered as clear as day!
He has made up his mind that if it's true that after death, there is the River of Forgetfulness, the Naihe Bridge, and Meng Po's Broth, he will vow not to mention past events when he meets his wife again on the road to the underworld and in the Great Hall of Judgment. He also refuses to drink Meng Po's Broth, wanting to continue their predestined relationship in the next life with his wife.
Later, when he mentioned "Holy Sect traitor", his teeth were clenched. This person was able to turn against the Silver Gun elder and sell out himself and his wife to various major sects in the Central Plains. He feared that even the people in the valley would not be spared. Thinking of the safety of the people in the valley, he was again uneasy. However, entrusting the heavy responsibility of exposing the traitor to this young youth before him, he still had no confidence in his heart!
On the ninth day, seeing him so worried about the woman in the valley, he couldn't help but wonder, who was this woman after all?
Lin Meng'er's tearful eyes searched from the waist of Wan Dao Fu Ren and found that flying eagle divine letter, put it away. She had seen this silver gun elder give the flying eagle divine letter to Wan Dao Fu Ren in the Tian Keng Di Fen, knew that was the magic sect master thing, so also did not think it strange! Of course, she didn't know that this flying eagle divine letter was the exclusive letter of the current magic sect master Yan Ying Fei, and in the hearts of the magic sect disciples, it was like an imperial sacred decree!
But on the ninth day, he was extremely troubled. The second thing that Wu Gou asked him to do was actually to help himself find out the traitor in the demonic sect! He knew that the traitor had unknowingly betrayed the three great elders one after another, and must be a person of high status. People with high status are afraid of having deep martial arts skills. How can he catch this person? Even if he catches this person, how will the people in the demonic sect believe him, a small young man? He is likely to die at the hands of the traitor and cannot avenge the three great elders!
Lin Meng'er didn't say a word, but she also knew that this matter was extremely difficult. Her senior brother might not have the ability to accomplish it. She had tears in her eyes as she looked at Chu Jiu.
At first, he was hesitant for a moment, but with his youthful temperament, he would definitely fulfill the promise to others. Thinking again about the silver spear elder who had blocked a palm for him before his death, Wu Gou elder and Wan Dao lady who were injured for him, without regard for their own true yuan, breaking through their own Ren pulse, greatly increasing their internal strength. Along this road to Shu, they took care of themselves and their fellow disciples with meticulous care, how could he not be deeply moved? He nodded vigorously, also promising: "Elder Wu Gou, rest assured, even if I have to sacrifice my life, I will definitely expose the... treacherous spy of the demonic sect!"
Wu Gou saw that Chu Jiu nodded in agreement, and Lin Meng'er had already put away the Flying Eagle Divine Letter. The "Heavenly Residual Blood Jade" was also arranged properly. Two major events were entrusted to others, and his heart felt a little lighter, with no more worries. He forced out a faint smile and said after a long while: "I still have a nephew... Ah, never mind! 'In heaven and on earth, there is no match for the Double Hooks.' Ah, never mind... The family background of Yin Gun Huang's ninth brother, our Wu Gou family doesn't have time to tell you about it either... My last wish is... Chu Jiu, little brother... Help me up!" After finishing speaking, Wu Gou's complexion was already pale and weak. Chu Jiu listened and quickly helped him sit up halfway. This movement made his body ache even more, with severe internal injuries pulling on his heart meridians, almost making him faint.
The old man's meridians were completely stiff, knowing that he had no more time to live, but he didn't say much, panting, facing Lin Meng'er, and murmuring: "The sacred fire is not extinguished, the world is not destroyed! The holy teachings... The seventh elder Tie Wu Gou pays his respects..." His hands came together, and he bowed down.
Lin Cang'er was shocked, couldn't hear clearly what Wu Gou Chang Lao was saying, so she turned over and stretched out her hand to support him. At this time, Wu Gou Chang Lao fell down as if he had been supported, falling beside Wan Dao Furen. The couple were already together, Wu Gou Chang Lao's eyes were closed, and he had also died. It was truly a pair of mandarin ducks, not seeking to be born on the same year, month and day, but wishing to die on the same year, month and day.
Now, the fifth elder of the Devil Sect, Duō Zōu Zi, the seventh elder Tiě Wú Gōu, the eighth elder Jīn Wān Dāo, and the ninth elder Huáng Yín Qiāng have all passed away. Chū Jiǔ thought to himself, if the righteous people were to know this information, they would surely be overjoyed and celebrating!
Lin Meng'er burst into loud sobs, her mouth only saying: "Wu Gou elder brother... Wu Gou elder brother..." On the other side, Chu Qi Mr., Bai Zhu Ye, and Xiao Qing heard Lin Meng'er's loud crying voice, knowing that Wu Gou elder had also passed away, they all quickly turned their heads and walked over!
Mr. Chu Qi saw Wu Gou's dying posture towards Lin Meng'er and didn't say a word, although he hadn't heard Wu Gou's last three requests, but his heart was also shocked, and he just sighed quietly.
On the ninth day, he could no longer hold on, his body getting colder and colder, his heart suffering from the cold energy attack, unbearable to the extreme. He knew that Wu Gou's internal strength was far superior to his own, and everyone had died under Lie Chi Yan's "Seven Sorrow Seven Extremes Sword" cold internal energy, he feared that he would also be unable to escape death!
He thought about it, and his heart ached even more. He had been holding on until now, but as soon as he let out this breath, he fainted and fell into Lin Meng's arms. All he could hear was Lin Meng's crying and panicked voice: "Shixiong, shixiong, you... Seventh Uncle, hurry..."
