Chapter 117 The Tragic Sound of the Flute
On the other hand, based on Wu Yan's investigation over many days, Di Feisheng learned that Jiao Liqiao had been colluding with Wanshengdao in recent years, and that Lei Huo Jiao Liqiao of Pilitang was also involved. Therefore, Di Feisheng planned to follow Jiao Liqiao and personally capture the person behind Wanshengdao.
So, when Jiao Liqiao went to meet with the people of Wanshengdao in the middle of the night, Di Feisheng secretly followed behind her.
Taking advantage of Feng Qing and Jiao Liqiao's inattention, Di Feisheng struck Feng Qing with a palm, sending him flying dozens of feet away.
Then Di Feisheng grabbed Jiao Liqiao by the neck and asked a question.
“Tell me who your master is and have him come out to see me.”
Jiao Liqiao was being choked, unable to make a sound, and helplessly pounded on Di Feisheng's hand.
Jiao Liqiao: You want me to speak? First, let go of my neck.
The flute player, seeing that Jiao Liqiao remained silent, tightened his grip on her wrist.
Jiao Liqiao felt the increasing pressure on her neck and could only silently plead with Di Feisheng.
Just then, Di Feisheng noticed a sharp sword thrusting towards him.
Di Feisheng could only release Jiao Liqiao to avoid the sharp sword.
The newcomer was dressed in a black robe, and his face was mostly covered, making it impossible to see his features.
Seeing the opponent swing his palm towards him, Di Feisheng hurriedly used his internal energy to resist, but found that his usually smooth internal energy was now sluggish and blocked.
Because of this pause in the critical moment, Di Feisheng could only muster 40% of his usual internal strength, and was knocked back several steps by the opponent's palm.
The man in black robes raised his sword and stabbed Di Feisheng in the abdomen.
Di Feisheng had intended to fight to the death with his opponent, but suddenly discovered that his internal energy was less than 10% of its original strength. Knowing that discretion is the better part of valor, Di Feisheng immediately turned around and left. This place was not suitable for him to stay any longer; he should go back and find out what was going on first.
Di Feisheng stumbled and fell to the side of a cliff waterfall, his internal energy now less than half full. He quickly bandaged his wounds, though he didn't know what had happened to his internal energy, he guessed that someone had poisoned him.
Carefully channeling the remaining internal energy within his body, he used the gentle and sustained nature of Yangzhou Slow to trap the unknown toxin at the wound site.
Feeling his head growing increasingly heavy and sluggish, Di Feisheng thought for a moment, then picked up a piece of black carbon stone from the ground and wrote the words "Find Li Lianhua" in his palm.
Due to excessive blood loss, Di Feisheng could not hold on any longer and fell headfirst into the water.
......
Li Lianhua, Wu You, Fang Duobing, and Nanfeng, a group of four, arrived at Majiabao Town in Fengzhou based on the information found by Fang Duobing.
They were told that Liu Rujing had left Majiabao a few years ago and become a corpse collector, and that he had also gone blind in one eye.
After finding out Liu Rujing's current address, the group headed over. By the time they arrived, it was already past midnight.
The group had just entered the courtyard when a man and a woman came out, cursing and swearing, their expressions showing some fear.
"Blind Liu, you've ruined me."
"You blind bastard, you've actually started selling living dead, and you're asking for a hundred taels of silver! You just wait!"
After they finished speaking, the two left, looking somewhat flustered.
"This is......"
Fang was ill and did not understand his meaning.
"Let me go..."
The group heard fighting sounds coming from inside the courtyard, along with other faint noises.
The group exchanged glances and quickly headed inside the house.
Upon entering, you will see the scene of Di Feisheng choking a strange man.
