The Legend of the Condor Heroes: I became one of the Five Great Masters by drawing cards

Chapter 191 The Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations

"Oh, and one more thing."

Zhong Ling was about to persuade him but was interrupted by Duan Yu.

"I just heard this person talking about the Four Evils. They seem to be guests invited by your father. If you go back, don't mention killing them."

"Guest?" Zhong Ling was puzzled. "This guy bullied Sister Mu. He's clearly a bad guy. Why did my father invite him?"

"I don't know that."

After Duan Yu finished speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but Gu Ping'an quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Did Master Duan forget about the poison in his body?"

"Ah!" Duan Yu slapped himself on the forehead, sighing and looking distressed. "How could I have forgotten such a big thing?"

By midnight, it was the seventh day since he had been poisoned, and only half a day remained before the poison would take effect.

He was only concerned with other people's affairs that night and forgot about his own life and death. This character is quite interesting.

"After going through so many twists and turns, I still can't save my life. What a miserable life!"

Seeing that he looked dejected, Gu Ping'an smiled and took out the porcelain bottle containing the antidote.

"Don't panic, that Sikong Gang leader is very easy to talk to. He has already given me the antidote. Don't worry, your life will be saved."

Duan Yu had already despaired and was about to ask them to tell his parents about his death, when he suddenly saw Gu Ping'an take out the antidote. He was overjoyed and felt that he had escaped death. He even felt that the moonlight was a little brighter.

"This antidote needs to be taken for three consecutive days, once a day, one coin each time. You've been poisoned for too long, and you're bound to suffer. It's best to find a safe place to recuperate."

The plot of the original novel is already chaotic, so Gu Ping'an doesn't dare to leave Duan Yu in Wuliang Mountain anymore. It's not so bad if he meets Yue Lao San and the people from Wuliang Sword Sect, but he is afraid of that Manggu Zhuha.

This encounter was extremely coincidental. First, there was the poison of the lightning marten, and then there was the extremely poisonous centipede. If he wasn't careful, he would have died.

He had no ill feelings towards Duan Yu, so if he really killed him, he would inevitably feel a little guilty.

"I've also heard of the reputation of 'Horse God' Zhong Wanchou. His skills are comparable to Yun Zhonghe's. With Nianci and I here, he can't hurt you."

Zhong Ling also said: "Although my father is a bit vicious, he listens to my mother the most. If he dares to bully you, I will ask my mother to ignore him for three months!"

Duan Yu had just escaped death from a desperate situation and after taking the first day's dose of antidote, the fear in his heart had subsided a lot. After hearing the advice of the two men, he simply made up his mind.

"Let's go, I don't believe that crazy uncle can eat me."

Although Zhong Ling didn't know that Zhong Wanchou was not her biological father, she was not annoyed by Duan Yu's description of her father. She smiled and put on Mu Wanqing's black rose.

Five people, three horses, Gu Ping'an and Mu Nianci rode together, and Duan Yu rode alone.

He had been tortured since Mu Wanqing threw him off the horse yesterday. He had either walked or lay horizontally on the horse's back the whole way. Now he could finally "ride" the horse.

This place was not far from Wanjie Valley. After going down the mountain and crossing the Lancang River, they arrived at the front of the valley after walking for about an hour.

On the left, there was a row of nine tall pine trees. Zhong Ling led a few people around to the right and counted to the fourth tree. After pushing aside the long grass, they saw a tree hole half a person's height.

There is a door panel embedded with a copper ring hidden on the ground in the tree hole. There is a stone staircase below. Go down first and then go up, and the view in front of you will suddenly open up.

"Sister Ling'er, your 'Valley of Ten Thousand Tribulations' is hidden so well. Without you leading the way, I'm afraid I'll never find it."

Mu Nianci couldn't help but sigh, and Zhong Ling smiled sweetly at her.

"Sis, now that you know the place, you must come and play with Ling'er often in the future."

There was a vast expanse of grass before me, and at the end of it was a row of pine trees. From one of these trees had been cut a section about ten feet long and a foot wide. Inscribed on it, on a white lacquer background, were nine large characters: "Anyone surnamed Duan who enters this valley will be killed without mercy."

The other eight characters were all black, only the word "kill" was bright red, with ink stains, as if it was covered with blood. In the dim light of dawn, it looked quite scary.

Duan Yu shrank his neck unconsciously. Zhong Ling looked at him, took down the small iron hammer hanging on the tree, picked it up and knocked on the word "Duan" three times.

Not long after, hurried footsteps were heard from behind the tree, followed by a woman's voice with a hint of surprise in her tone.

"Ling'er, are you back?"

Zhong Ling heard it clearly and couldn't hide her joy. She shouted, "Mom! It's me! Ling'er is back!"

The sound of rings and pendants jingled as a woman in her thirties, wearing a light green silk shirt, turned around. She was pretty but looked a little haggard.

Although it was dark, one could tell that her features were quite similar to Zhong Ling's, and she was obviously the "Pretty Yaksha" Gan Baobao.

"Mom, let me introduce you. This is Sister Mu and her husband, Brother Gu. If it weren't for them saving us this time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to come back!"

Gan Baobao's face was filled with gratitude. "Thank you both for rescuing my daughter. My husband and I will always remember this great favor. Come, please go into the valley and rest."

Seeing that the two men had extraordinary demeanor, she secretly guessed their origins and thought that they were definitely not ordinary people.

There were lights on in the valley, obviously they had been on all night. Gan Baobao was worried about his daughter and couldn't sleep all night, so it was no wonder that he looked haggard.

"You rushed back overnight, so I guess you haven't had any meals yet. Ling'er, please stay here with me for a while. I'll go prepare some food."

The servants had not yet gotten up, and Gan Baobao personally brought tea and snacks. Then he took Zhong Ling's hand and looked her up and down, his eyes full of heartache.

"Ling'er, Master Duan came with a message the other day, and I was so worried. Come on, tell me if you're hurt."

Zhong Ling snuggled in her mother's arms with a smile on her face, and recounted the thrilling encounters along the way with some exaggeration. Compared with what Duan Yu had said at the beginning, it was more like a novel.

Gan Baobao was happy to cooperate with her, sometimes frowning, sometimes exclaiming, until he heard Yun Zhonghe doing evil.

"That Yun Zhonghe is truly despicable. How dare he bully us? Your father actually invited such a person here. If he hadn't been injured, I would have given him a good beating!"

"Daddy was hurt? Who hurt him?"

Zhong Ling didn't know that she was not Zhong Wanchou's biological daughter. When she heard that he was injured, she jumped up from her mother's arms.

"Don't be so impatient. It was an accident during our sparring match. The injury isn't serious."

The injury was caused by Gan Baobao accidentally injured by Duan Yu. He felt embarrassed for a moment and could only cough lightly.

"By the way, don't let him know that you killed Yun Zhonghe, otherwise there will be trouble again."

"Mom, I know, I won't say anything nonsense."

Zhong Ling nodded obediently, and Gan Baobao felt relieved and arranged rooms for them to stay.

Zhong Wanchou stayed there for several days, recuperating from his injuries and never leaving the house. He never met Duan Yu, and everything went smoothly.

On the third day, the poison in Duan Yu's body was completely gone. Just as he was about to say goodbye, another guest came to the valley.

Mu Wanqing was practicing martial arts with Mu Nianci in the courtyard when she happened to meet the newcomer.

"Wan'er, where's your veil?!"
