Chapter 946: Plan to Absorb the Stars

"The last time I came here was twelve years ago." Dongfang Bubai looked at the plaque on the lintel of the manor with some emotion, "Twelve years have passed in a flash, and the past events seem like yesterday."

Su Yi said: "People only remember the past events that are of great significance."

"This place is indeed of great significance to me." Dongfang Bubai sighed.

His expression was complicated and he seemed very uneasy.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Su Yi stepped forward and patted the copper ring on the door, then stepped back and stood beside Dongfang Bubai.

After a while, the door slowly opened, and two old men dressed as servants walked out side by side. , The two men had bright eyes and vigorous spirits, and they were obviously martial artists at first glance.

The two looked up and down, and Su Yi and Dongfang Bubai bowed together.

The man on the left said respectfully, "What brings you to my manor?"

"Who are you?" Dongfang Bubai frowned slightly, "Where is Huang Zhonggong?"

Dongfang Bubai's imposing aura was obvious, and anyone who was not blind could tell that he was not an ordinary person.

The man did not dare to neglect it, and hurriedly bowed again and said, "I am Ding Jian, the 'One Word Electric Sword', and the one next to me is Shi Lingwei, the 'Five Road God'."

He paused here.

However, to his disappointment, neither Dongfang Bubai nor Su Yi said "I have heard of you for a long time", and they did not even react at all.

Ding Jian continued with some embarrassment, "But we two brothers have not been in the martial arts world for many years, and now we are just two servants in Meizhuang. Do you want to visit my master? My master never sees outsiders..."

Su Yi took out a black wooden order from his arms and threw it over casually.

Ding Jian caught it, took a look, and his face suddenly changed.

"May I ask who you are..." He stared at Su Yi in doubt and asked in a trembling voice.

Su Yi stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, "Yang Lianting."

The two men's faces changed again.

"Tell Huang Zhonggong that Dongfang Sect Leader is here, and ask him to come out to greet him." Su Yi said.

"Dongfang..." Ding Jian said only two words, and his face turned pale with fear.

The two men knelt down with a "thump" and said in horror, "We are damned. We didn't know it was Dongfang Sect Leader in person. We are so offended. Sect Leader, General Manager, please forgive us!"

A person's name is like a tree's shadow.

Although Dongfang Bubai has not been down from the Black Wood Cliff for more than ten years, as the most powerful person in the martial arts world, his name itself carries absolute deterrence.

Su Yi waved his hand and said, "Go and call someone!"

"Yes! Yes! I'll go right away!" The two ran in panic.

Dongfang Bubai was too lazy to wait outside the door, so he said to Su Yi, "Brother Lian, why don't we go in first?"

"Okay."

After entering the yard, he saw a large patio on the left, with an old plum tree planted on each side of the patio, with branches as strong as iron and extremely vigorous.

On the wall on the right was an ink painting, depicting the back of an immortal, with rich ink and powerful brushstrokes.

The inscription on the lower right corner of the painting read "Danqingsheng splashed ink after being drunk", with the handwriting as swift as a dragon and snake, horizontal and vertical like a sword.

Although Su Yi didn't understand calligraphy and painting, he also thought the painting was very extraordinary, and couldn't help but praise it as "good calligraphy".

Dongfang Bubai said softly, "Brother Lian, if you like it, let Danqingsheng paint for you on the Black Wood Cliff."

"I'm just talking casually." Su Yi shook his head.

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a hurried voice, and then he saw four old men running towards this side with Ding Jian and Shi Lingwei, each with a look of shock and panic on their faces.

The old man in the lead had silver hair, was skinny, and had sunken muscles on his face, like a skeleton, but his eyes were bright.

He led everyone to rush over, his eyes paused slightly on Su Yi's face, and immediately looked at Dongfang Bubai, his pupils suddenly shrank, his face showed an extremely shocked expression, hesitant and unbelieving, and even his steps slowed down.

"Dong, Dongfang Sect Leader?" He shouted in disbelief.

"Huang Zhonggong, you are much older." Dongfang Bubai looked at him and said slowly.

"It's really the Sect Leader!" Huang Zhonggong was shocked and frightened, and hurriedly bowed and said: "The subordinate Huang Zhonggong greets the Sect Leader!"

"Heibaizi (Tubi Weng) (Danqingsheng) greets the Sect Leader!" The other three also bowed together.

"This must be Chief Steward Yang!" Huang Zhonggong then clasped his fists to Su Yi and said respectfully, "I have long heard of Chief Steward Yang. It is a great honor to meet Qingyan today! Meet the Chief Steward!"

"Meet the Chief Steward!" The others followed suit.

"No need to be polite!" Su Yi gave a false support.

"I did not know that the Master was coming. I am sorry for not welcoming you. I hope the Master will forgive me!" Huang Zhonggong bowed to Dongfang Bubai again.

Dongfang Bubai asked, "How is he?"

Huang Zhonggong naturally knew who Dongfang Bubai was talking about, and hurriedly said, "Master, the man is still imprisoned in the dungeon. For the past twelve years, the four of us have not left Meizhuang and dare not fail in our duties."

"Take us to see him." Dongfang Bubai said.

"Yes!" Huang Zhonggong agreed and was about to lead the way, but Su Yi suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"

"What happened to Brother Lian?" Dongfang Bubai asked.

"We should not go down for the time being. It is better to bring him here first." Su Yi said.

"This... Manager Yang doesn't know." Huang Zhonggong first looked at Dongfang Bubai, and seeing that Dongfang Bubai didn't react, he hurriedly explained, "The criminal's hands and feet are cast in fine steel shackles, so he can't be brought here."

"Use this, and this." Su Yi took out two things that he had prepared long ago, stepped forward, and placed them in Huang Zhonggong's hand.

One of them was a medicine bottle, and the other was a bunch of steel wire saws rolled together.

"This medicine is the soul-losing incense prepared by the famous doctor Ping Yizhi, who killed people. Just a small sip will make you faint. Without the antidote, you will never wake up." Su Yi introduced the bottle.

This medicine was something Su Yi found in the warehouse of Heimu Cliff. He brought it with him when he went down the mountain this time just to use it at this time.

"Master Huang, use this medicine to knock Ren Woxing unconscious first, and then use this steel wire saw to cut off the shackles and chains on his limbs. Wouldn't that bring him up?" Su Yi said.

"This..." Huang Zhonggong hesitated slightly and looked at Dongfang Bubai.

"Do whatever Brother Lian asks you to do." Dongfang Bubai said lightly.

"Yes!" Huang Zhonggong took the two things Su Yi handed him without hesitation, and was about to retreat with the other three people.

Su Yi spoke again: "It's enough for you to go alone, the rest of you stay."

"Yes!" Everyone agreed.

Dongfang Bubai never asked Su Yi why he did this from beginning to end. He didn't care why. He only cared about one thing-Su Yi did whatever he wanted.

"Master, chief steward, why don't you move to the inner hall and have some tea and snacks?" Heibaizi, who had been following Huang Zhonggong and had not spoken, said carefully.

"What do you think, brother Lian?" Dongfang Bubai turned to Su Yi, as if Su Yi's words were true.

Su Yi shook his head: "No need."

He said to Dongfang Bubai: "People like Ren Woxing will never give up his special skills even if they die. If you force him, I'm afraid we will only get nothing. The martial arts of "Xingxing Dafa" will be lost."

When Su Yi said this, Heibaizi's face suddenly became very exciting. Tu Bi Weng, Dan Qingsheng, Ding Jian and Shi Lingwei behind him were also trembling and very uneasy.

Only then did they know that Dongfang Bubai and Su Yi came here for the terrifying "Star Absorbing Art".

But is it really okay to say such an important secret in public?

In fact, until now, Su Yi is not afraid that these people in front of him will know that he is plotting the "Star Absorbing Art". With Dongfang Bubai around, he is not worried that these people will have any bad intentions.

But Dongfang Bubai doesn't care.

After listening to Su Yi, he nodded slightly and said: "Ren Woxing is a great man of his generation, so he is naturally not threatened by others. But I don't plan to threaten him. I plan to let him go. Using his freedom in exchange for his martial arts is a good deal for him."

"Empty words are not enough. What if he talks nonsense and deliberately says something wrong?" Su Yi said.

Dongfang Bubai said, "I can force him to swear."

Su Yi said with a smile, "It's not that I judge others by my own standards, but if I were Ren Woxing, I would never let my special skills fall into the hands of the enemy. Now I have to reveal them for the sake of freedom. Even if I swear, I will never teach them everything I know even if I am struck by lightning and destroyed by the sky and the earth."

"If that's the case, for you, brother Lian, I have no choice but to let him be unable to live or die!" Dongfang Bubai said grimly with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Not yet," Su Yi shook his head, "I have a guess, but it still needs to be verified. When Master Huang brings Ren Woxing up later, you seal Ren Woxing's vital points first, which is considered as an additional insurance. Then let them watch Ren Woxing, and you accompany me to the dungeon."

"Okay." Dongfang Bubai responded happily.

No matter what Su Yi said, he would agree.

Hei Baizi and others bent down and lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.

After waiting for a while, Huang Zhonggong came running towards them with a man in his arms.

The man was wearing coarse cloth, which was so dirty that the original color had disappeared. Before he arrived, the stench was already overwhelming. His messy hair covered his face, so his features could not be seen clearly. His limbs were hanging limply, as if he had no consciousness.

Plop!

Huang Zhonggong came up and threw the man to the ground, clasping his fists and saying, "Reporting to the leader and the chief steward, the wanted criminal has been brought here."

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Dongfang Bubai suddenly waved his sleeves, and suddenly a few points of silver light sank into Ren Woxing's body, and Ren Woxing, who was in a coma, had no reaction at all.

"That's good now. Even if he was pretending to faint, he really fainted." Dongfang Bubai smiled, "No one in the world can solve my tricks. Are you relieved, brother Lian?"

"Of course I'm relieved if you do it." Su Yi smiled, and then said to Huang Zhonggong: "Master Huang, please go again and take me and the leader to the dungeon."

Although Huang Zhonggong was puzzled and couldn't figure out what Su Yi was doing, he didn't dare to ask more. He just said awkwardly: "This... The dungeon is filthy and smelly. I'm afraid it will insult the leader and the chief steward..."

"It doesn't matter." Su Yi waved his hand.

For the sake of "Star Absorbing Art", what does it matter if it's a little smelly and dirty? Even if there is a toilet below, he has to drill it.

On the Internet in later generations, there has always been a question about Ren Woxing, that is, where did Ren Woxing poop when he was trapped for twelve years?

According to Ren Woxing's half a pound of feces every day, he was trapped for twelve years and excreted almost two tons of feces.

Two tons of shit...

Where is it piled?

Other questions like this include:

How does Xiao Zhao change her underwear after wearing shackles for so many years?

How does Mei Chaofeng wipe her butt after practicing the Nine Yin Bone Grasping Technique?

How does Yang Guo cut his fingernails after being one-armed for sixteen years?

These questions once made the sand sculptures worry about them.

Now, Su Yi can help them get an authoritative answer to the first question.

Su Yi insisted on going to the dungeon, so Huang Zhonggong had to take him and Dongfang Bubai for another trip.

The others stayed where they were to guard Ren Woxing.

The three of them went around the front hall to the backyard, passed through a corridor, and came to a moon cave door with the words "Qin Xin" written on it, which was quite elegant.

After the moon cave door, there was a quiet flower path, shaded by bamboo forests on both sides, and the pebbles on the flower path were covered with moss. Obviously, few people usually walked on it. They walked all the way to the three stone houses, Huang Zhonggong pushed open the door in the middle, and walked in with Su Yi and Dongfang Bubai.

There was a bed and a table in the room, and the furnishings were simple. Huang Zhonggong stepped forward and lifted the bed board, revealing a large square hole. He jumped down without saying a word, followed by Dongfang Bubai, and then Su Yi.

Below was a very long and narrow tunnel, with an oil lamp hanging at intervals.

Going down the steps, I passed at least five or six large iron doors made of fine steel. These large iron doors were all open, but I think they were all locked when Ren Woxing was still imprisoned.

When I walked to the end, I didn't know how deep I went down.

At the end of the corridor was also an iron door with a one-foot square hole on it.

This door was also wide open, and it was pitch black inside. A foul smell came out from the door, which made people want to vomit.

Huang Zhonggong was about to step in, but Su Yi said, "Master Huang, you can wait outside the door."

"Yes, general manager." Huang Zhonggong stopped immediately.

Su Yi took down the oil lamp on one wall and stepped into the house.

After entering, he found that the four walls of this house, which was only about three meters square, were all cast in fine steel. Four thick chains hung on the stone bed in front, and a shabby and dirty straw mat was spread on the bed.

Su Yi took two steps forward and lifted the straw mat on the stone bed, revealing the flat stone slab underneath.

The stone slab was engraved with dense small characters!

Seeing this, Su Yi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled from the bottom of his heart.

Fortunately, nothing unexpected happened.

"This is..." Dongfang Bubai took a look and was immediately surprised. He looked at Su Yi with a gleam in his eyes: "Brother Lian, did you expect this?"

"A person who has been imprisoned for twelve years without seeing the light of day would probably have been despaired and numb." Su Yi smiled, "But it would be a pity if his unique skills were lost, so there is a high probability that he would leave a legacy, just in case."

"I used drugs to knock Ren Woxing unconscious and then took him away from this cell, just in case he would be alert when he was awake and destroy the inner strength method he engraved. Fortunately, nothing went wrong!"

"He engraved this method for future generations because he knew he was going to die. It will definitely not be false!"
