Chapter 130 Escape
The picture distorted and changed again.
When the picture became clear, what came into view was a huge fire rising into the sky.
The fire was so fierce that it seemed to devour the entire world.
Su Wanyin looks to be sixteen or seventeen years old.
She was wearing a white dress that was blackened by fireworks and her hair was messy.
With tears on her face, she cried bitterly while holding the body of the white-bearded old man amid the rubble burned by the fire.
"Master! Don't die..."
Her cries sounded so mournful and desperate amid the raging fire and the crackling sounds.
The white-bearded old man's body was already cold, and Su Wanyin hugged him tightly.
As if this could retain his last bit of warmth.
At this time, a man slowly approached with a sword dripping with blood.
The blood from the sword dripped onto the ground, splashing out chilling blood flowers.
The man had a ferocious smile on his face, pointed his sword at Su Wanyin and said viciously: “Junior sister, hand over the Nine Revolutions Pill, I know this old immortal has given it to you.
If you give it to me, our Medicine King Valley will be able to flourish and become a powerful force in the martial arts world! We no longer have to hide in a corner!"
Su Wanyin raised her eyes full of hatred and glared at the man in front of her who was once familiar but now seemed so strange to her.
He cursed angrily, "Shi Xuan, you colluded with Yun Jinqiu to kill Master!
You, a beast who betrays your teacher and ancestors, shall not die a good death!"
Her voice was hoarse with anger and sadness.
Shi Xuan ignored Su Wanyin's scolding. There was only greed and desire for the Nine Revolutions Pill in his eyes.
In order to force her to hand over the Nine Revolutions Pill, he revealed his more cruel side.
He raised his sword and dropped it.
He cut the tendons of Su Wanyin's hands and feet without hesitation.
Su Wanyin screamed in pain and collapsed to the ground, but her eyes were still full of indomitable spirit and anger.
Shi Xuan did not give up, he forced poison into Su Wanyin's mouth.
He watched her body twisted in pain without any mercy.
"Junior sister, I advise you to be sensible and hand over the Nine Revolutions Pill as soon as possible!"
"Pooh!"
Su Wanyin spat in his face.
In the end, Shi Xuan ruthlessly locked Su Wanyin into the snake cave.
The snake cave was dark and damp, filled with a disgusting fishy smell.
Countless poisonous snakes were crawling on the ground, spitting out their tongues and making hissing sounds.
Su Wanyin lay weakly on the ground. The pain in her body and the erosion of the poison made her almost lose consciousness.
After being locked up in the snake cave, Su Wanyin fell into endless darkness and fear.
The poisonous snakes around her were spitting out their tongues and kept approaching her.
She was unable to move and could only watch those cold and slippery bodies moving around her.
Some snakes even climbed onto her body. She could clearly feel the touch of snake scales scratching her skin, which was creepy.
The air in the snake cave was filled with the smell of decay and blood, which made her almost nauseous.
Because the tendons in her hands and feet were severed, she was unable to drive away these horrible creatures and could only silently endure the double torture of body and mind.
In the darkness, her thoughts were in a mess. She recalled the good times she had with her master and fellow disciples, and her heart was filled with pain and regret.
She hated her own powerlessness, hated herself for not learning martial arts well, and hated herself for not being able to avenge her master or protect herself.
Hunger and thirst also gradually set in, her lips became cracked, and her throat felt like it was burning.
Every breath became extremely difficult, as if a huge rock was pressing on my chest.
In this extreme pain, Su Wanyin's consciousness was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.
She kept praying in her heart, hoping that there would be a glimmer of hope.
However, every minute and every second of waiting was like a long torture, tormenting her body and mind.
Until a few days later.
A boy of about thirteen or fourteen years old, armed with a sword, broke into the snake cave.
Mo Zhifei suddenly broke into the snake cave.
He saw Su Wanyin, who was dying.
Mo Zhifei stepped into the snake cave carefully, holding a packet of medicine powder tightly in his hand.
When he saw Su Wanyin's weak and frightened appearance, a strong desire to protect her surged in his eyes.
He quickly opened the powder bag and sprinkled it around.
The powder floated in the air, emitting a pungent smell.
The snakes that were originally watching with eager eyes seemed to be greatly frightened the moment they came into contact with the powder, and they twisted their bodies and retreated.
Mo Zhifei approached Su Wanyin step by step. The ground under his feet was wet and slippery, so he walked extremely carefully.
Finally he came to Su Wanyin, squatted down, and said softly: "Sister, don't be afraid, I'm here to save you."
Mo Zhifei gently helped Su Wanyin up and let her lean on his thin shoulders.
Su Wanyin was so weak that she was almost unconscious and just leaned on him instinctively.
Mo Zhifei clenched his teeth and took a deep breath.
Then he took Su Wanyin and slowly walked towards the exit of the snake cave.
With every step he took, he had to pay special attention to the movements under his feet and around him, for fear of alarming those terrible snakes again.
During this difficult process, Mo Zhifei's forehead was covered with sweat, and his arms were trembling slightly because of bearing Su Wanyin's weight.
Finally, they saw a faint light coming from the exit of the snake cave.
Mo Zhifei quickened his pace and rushed out of the snake cave with Su Wanyin.
What greeted them was the fresh air and warm sunshine outside.
and also……
The ambush by Shi Xuan and Yun Jinqiu.
Shi Xuan: "Little Junior Sister, your little beggar disciple is really loyal to you..."
Mo Zhifei fled with the seriously injured Su Wanyin, while behind him were the underworld gangs that were in collusion with his senior brother Shi Xuan and were chasing him relentlessly.
They traveled day and night all the way south, sleeping in the open air and exhausted.
Su Wanyin's injuries became increasingly serious and her health deteriorated.
Later one day, Su Wanyin suddenly had a high fever that wouldn't go away.
Mo Zhifei was extremely anxious. Looking at Su Wanyin's painful appearance, he made up his mind to go out and find medicine.
However, Mo Zhifei never came back after that.
Su Wanyin waited for three days in the dilapidated temple where they were temporarily staying, and every minute and every second was torture.
Her heart was filled with fear and anxiety, from initial expectation to gradual despair.
On the third night, Su Wanyin finally concluded that Mo Zhifei had left her alone.
This thought broke her heart, but in order to survive, she had to force herself to leave the dilapidated temple despite her frail body.
Su Wanyin dragged his heavy steps and finally sneaked into a tea merchant's caravan.
She hid among the cargo and followed the caravan on a bumpy journey. After going through untold hardships, she finally escaped to the south of the Yangtze River.
