Chapter 874 Handing Over the Tiger Talisman
Jiang Youzhen frowned when he heard the hoarse voice. The voice seemed familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"Hehe! I have figured it all out. Protector, come with me!" The guard was a little proud and prepared to lead them into the cave.
Jiang Youzhen immediately made a "two" gesture to Li Dongsheng, and then stroked his neck. Li Dongsheng immediately understood and nodded.
The guard led three men in black into the cave. They first walked to a stone door, and then found a mechanism on the mountain wall.
When the stone door opened with a bang, the guard said, "Be careful, guardian, there is a trap inside, follow me! Don't step on anything!"
The guardian snorted, and the guard walked in first. The three guardians followed closely behind, following the guard's footsteps to a stone chamber.
There were two guards standing in front of the stone chamber. The two guards were a little confused when they saw the newcomer, so the guard took out a token.
"I've been ordered to interrogate Chen Xudao!"
The two guards looked at each other and saw the confusion in each other's eyes.
"It's always the adults who come in person to interrogate Chen Xudao. Who are they?" one of them asked.
"This is someone sent by the master himself. Isn't there no progress on the master's side?"
Upon hearing that it was someone sent by the master himself, the two guards immediately stepped aside.
"Please come in!"
"Well! You guys stay guarding outside!" The protector was very arrogant. After giving an order, he walked in with two guards.
The two guards behind the protector looked at each other and saw excitement in each other's eyes.
As soon as you enter the stone chamber, you will see a man tied to a pillar in the middle. Iron chains are tied to the pillar, as if he is holding some terrifying master.
"Protector, this is Chen Xudao!"
The man tied to the pillar was covered in blood and his clothes were tattered, with bloodstains showing on the torn parts. One could imagine what kind of torture he had suffered.
He slowly raised his head when he heard someone talking, and his sharp eyes shot out from his hair like an arrow. However, after just one glance, he lowered his head again.
"Chen Xudao!" the guardian walked forward and shouted.
The man didn't say anything, so the guard stepped forward and said, "Protector, he's very stubborn and won't confess!"
"Are you tough? Your family is destroyed and your daughter is imprisoned. Is such a master worthy of your support?" The guardian's sinister voice sounded.
"Do you want to know the whereabouts of your General Dingyuan?"
This sentence successfully aroused Chen Xudao, "Who are you? You are not the Prince of Yuanming's man. Do you know his whereabouts? Where is he?"
"What a loyal dog! It's a pity that he didn't care about your life or death and fled from the battlefield. Why do you think he didn't come back? Because he knew that the country was about to change hands!"
“Hehehehehe~” The laughter was particularly harsh!
"You're talking nonsense. Even if the country changes hands, the general can't escape! He is guarding the border and the people, and there are so many flesh and blood behind him.
The general is a man of steel, how could he possibly run away? Do you think I'm so stupid as to fall for your trick? Bastard! Release the general!" Chen Xudao was so excited that he spat at the guardian.
"Why are you so excited? If you want to know his whereabouts, just hand over the other half of the tiger talisman! Anyway, your general threw the tiger talisman to you and flew away!"
"Tiger Tally? The Tiger Tally is not with me! How could I have it? Only a general would have it!" Chen Xudao shook his head.
Tiger Tally? The two guards behind him suddenly had a look in their eyes. Shouldn't it be in General Dingyuan's hands?
"How do you think I knew that the tiger talisman was in your hands? Wang Yuanlu told me that himself. Do you think he gave it to you because he trusted you? He wanted to get rid of his status as a general and flee far away. Now that he has surrendered to our master, we have promised him a high position and generous salary. Why should we worry that he will not agree?"
"Anyway, the tiger talisman is not with me. You can kill me or chop me up as you please." Chen Xudao didn't believe it at all. After he finished speaking, he fell silent again.
"Protector, what should we do? He just won't listen to any persuasion or advice!" The guard was very annoyed and stepped forward to ask.
"Where is his daughter? Go and bring her here. I'll make him watch his daughter being tortured to death in front of him. How can he remain calm?" The protector sneered.
"But will this alert the enemy?" The guard hesitated.
"What are you afraid of? If he won't tell you, then he's of no use to you."
"Yes!" The guard took the order and was about to go out.
A guard behind the Dharma Protector moved his hand, but was held down by another guard. The Dharma Protector suddenly turned around and glanced at the two of them.
He squinted his eyes and covered his face so that no expression could be seen. At this moment, the atmosphere in the stone chamber suddenly became tense.
"You two should not just sit there, let him have a taste of the pain of slow slicing first, but don't let him die." The guardian suddenly said.
"Yes!"
This voice actually made the guardian relax. The voice was familiar, but he was suspicious.
However, the next moment something strange happened. When the guard passed by him, he sprinkled a handful of powder in his face. He quickly dodged and held his breath, but he was still a step too slow. He did dodge it, but still couldn't help inhaling some.
At the same time, a strong sword energy attacked, and the guardian immediately drew out the long sword at his waist to resist.
On the other side, the guard was stunned by this sudden change. However, he reacted quickly and immediately drew out his sword, but unfortunately he was still a step too late. He felt a chill on his neck, and then something gushed out from his neck.
The guard was stabbed in the throat with a sword in the first encounter, and the protector had already fought a round with one of the guards.
Even Chen Xudao, who was tied up, was dumbfounded. What was going on? He hadn't reacted yet.
"Who are you?" the guardian was shocked.
He mobilized the internal strength of his whole body, but suddenly found that his meridians were running slowly and his hands and feet became a little weak.
"You gave me a softening powder!" The guardian was horrified. Soon the fight here would attract the guards, and then he would not be able to escape.
A sword came slashing towards him. This sword had no tricks at all and carried the force of thunder. Before it reached him, he felt as if his chest was being pressed down by a thousand-pound tripod, making it hard for him to breathe.
"Puff!" A sword pierced into his left shoulder, and blood gushed out immediately. He also flew backwards and hit the stone wall.
"You?" He looked up at the person in front of him, surprise flashing in his eyes.
Seeing the long sword coming again, he immediately said: "Don't kill me! Don't you want to know my origins? You also want to know where General Dingyuan is? As long as you let me live, I will tell you!"
"Too much talk!" A sword to the throat.
"Why don't you leave him alive? This person is very important!" another guard was surprised.
"This kind of person is very good at playing tricks. Do you think we can take him away? Let's do the important things quickly!"
That’s right! The two people in front of me are Jiang Youzhen and Li Dongsheng in disguise.
Jiang Youzhen stepped forward and pulled off the person's veil. When he saw an ordinary and unfamiliar face, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.
