Chapter 467 The Road to Revenge is Full of Stumbling Blocks (1)
noon.
The sun was blazing.
In a grove of trees, the chirping of cicadas was deafening.
Under a large tree, a masked man dressed in black was impaled on the tree by a sword through his chest.
Su Dingding opened his eyes and found himself lying on the back of a man in his twenties dressed in white.
The man was also injured and was being attacked by several masked men.
"Put down that boy, and we might spare your life," the masked man said in a low voice.
The man in white, with an air of righteousness, let out a cold snort, "Unless I'm dead, you won't be able to touch a hair on his head!"
Su Dingding tilted her head and looked at him, thinking, "He's quite righteous, isn't he?"
Seeing that he was awake, the man in white placed him under another large tree and whispered, "If you're scared, just close your eyes. Uncle will kill them all and take you away soon."
Su Dingding nodded.
As a result, the white-clad man's cool demeanor lasted only three seconds. Due to the exertion of his internal energy during the fight, the poison gas in his body was triggered, and he suddenly knelt down and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then a masked man in black pierced his body with his sword and pulled it out.
Blood spurted out, and the man in white glanced at Su Dingding unwillingly before collapsing to the ground.
Uh……
Su Dingding sat quietly under the big tree, watching several masked men slowly approach him.
"Kid, come with us."
Su Dingding shook her head, "I'm a germaphobe and I'm also picky about looks. You guys are smelly and ugly, so I don't really like you."
The masked men in black were stunned. What nonsense was this?
They didn't take a poisoned kid seriously.
The next second, they all collapsed to the ground, their necks snapped, dying with their eyes wide open in disbelief.
Su Dingding clapped his hands, feeling a surge of blood rushing to his head.
Before she could vomit blood, Gangzi had already stuffed the antidote into her mouth.
[Host, receive the original owner's memories.]
The original owner's name was Wei Dongxi, and he was seven years old.
His father was the Grand Tutor. He was impeached by the Crown Prince's faction because he sided with the benevolent Second Prince during the struggle for the throne between the Crown Prince and the Second Prince.
In the end, he not only lost his official position, but also suffered a brutal attack by bandits on his way back to his hometown, and his entire family was killed.
At that time, the original owner's mother was about to give birth. She gave birth to him while fleeing for her life. The maid took him with her and escaped. The mother was killed.
Later, the maid was also hunted down, in order to save the young master's life.
The maid placed the keepsake and a letter written in blood by the lady into the swaddling clothes, then put him in a large basin and let him float downstream.
She rowed upstream.
The result was predictable: the maid died a tragic death.
Wei Dongxi escaped unharmed and was taken in by an old farmer.
When the old farmer raised him to be three years old, a group of robbers suddenly broke into his house. Fortunately, at the critical moment, a white-clad boy with superb martial arts skills, Xia Zhongbai, arrived.
Xia Zhongbai was unable to save the old farmer, who entrusted Wei Dongxi and the baby to him before he died.
From then on, Wei Dongxi lived and practiced martial arts with Xia Zhongbai, and when he grew up, he avenged his parents and family.
However, they could not escape the fate of being hunted down. Xia Zhongbai, because of his handsome appearance, also provoked Song Lianhua, the daughter of the Valley Master of Evil King Valley, on his escape.
In order to keep Xia Zhongbai by her side, Song Lianhua poisoned them.
After being poisoned, Xia Zhongbai and Wei Dongxi were pursued again while escaping. Xia Zhongbai was seriously injured but was rescued by Song Lianhua, while Wei Dongxi was captured by the Eastern Depot.
Now that the Crown Prince has become Emperor, eliminating dissidents has become the Eastern Depot's mission.
It is said that Wei Dongxi's father possessed important secret evidence against the Crown Prince, which led to the tragic extermination of his entire family.
On the way back to the capital, Wei Dongxi was rescued by a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old and his men while resting by the river.
The two hit it off immediately, and Wei Dongxi even promised to treat him to candied hawthorns the next time they met. But that meeting turned out to be their last.
After Xia Zhongbai recovered from his injuries, the remaining poison had not been cleared. For Wei Dongxi's safety, he had no choice but to agree to Song Lianhua's request to send Wei Dongxi to Hongshan. He then returned to Xiewang Valley to stay with her until old age.
He did his best and personally handed Wei Dongxi over to his master, Zhao Xiuquan.
He didn't want to return to Evil King Valley. He wanted to find a place to die from the poison and end his life, but Song Lianhua caught him and took him back. She severed his tendons and locked him in a dark cellar as punishment for his ingratitude.
Hongshan was murdered along with his entire family after the Eastern Depot found out that he had taken in Wei Dongxi.
Wei Dongxi died inexplicably from vomiting blood on his way back to the capital after being arrested.
……
"The original owner was young and didn't understand many things. I'm currently collecting information and will gradually fill in the gaps later," Gangzi continued. "The host also knows most of the original owner's wishes: to avenge his family, save his Uncle Xia, protect his master and fellow disciples, find a childhood friend and treat him to candied hawthorns, grow up to be a chivalrous knight-errant who kills all the bad guys in the world, have more abundant food from the Abyss of Vengeful Ghosts, and bring along his pet two-legged dog from the Abyss!"
Gangzi finished speaking in one breath, and Su Dingding slowly digested it.
So at this point, they have already been poisoned by that perverted woman, Song Lianhua.
She walked up to Xia Zhongbai. His breathing was weak; he was still alive, incredibly lucky.
He took the antidote and his wound was bandaged.
Su Dingding carried Xia Zhongbai on his shoulder and left the woods to find a place to stay.
Gangzi pulled Xia Zhongbai's Shuyu Sword from the tree and carried it on its shoulder.
The spirit of the two-legged dog followed behind them, hopping and skipping like a little rabbit.
However, others cannot see it, and it will not have any impact on anyone.
Upon arriving in a nearby town, Su Dingding spent extra money to check into an inn and asked the waiter to help him hire a doctor.
Xia Zhongbai was seriously injured, but because Su Dingding had already treated him in time, the doctor only prescribed some medicine, and thankfully his life was saved.
The next morning, Xia Zhongbai woke up and Su Dingding asked the waiter to bring him a bowl of porridge.
Xia Zhongbai, pale-faced, asked Su Dingding who had saved them.
"I don't know either. A very powerful masked man killed all those people, then brought us here and left." Su Dingding then asked, feigning surprise, "Wasn't he Uncle Xia's friend?"
Xia Zhongbai frowned. Who could it be?
Now that he is seriously injured and poisoned, he may not be able to protect Xi'er in the future. What should we do?
Su Dingding looked at him, her heart filled with admiration.
According to Gangzi, Xia Zhongbai had no relation to the Wei family. That day, he had only saved Wei Dongxi by chance. Entrusted by the old farmer, and after reading the blood letter, he learned that the child carried a deep-seated blood feud, so he agreed to protect him.
He was just a wandering knight who, because of a good deed, began a life of wandering and was cruelly killed by the evil king Song Lianhua, and was imprisoned in a cellar for the rest of his life until his death.
"Xi'er, shall your uncle send someone to take you to Hongshan?" Xia Zhongbai asked weakly.
"Oh no, Xi'er wants to stay with Uncle Xia. Uncle Xia, don't worry, Xi'er has grown up and can protect you!" Su Dingding patted his thin chest.
Xia Zhongbai smiled wryly and laboriously raised his hand to pat Su Dingding's head.
Just then, a commotion was heard outside.
Gangzi promptly warned, "Host, the Eastern Depot's dogs have come sniffing around again!"
