Chapter 464 The Miserable Tong Ping'an
Yang Che came to the top of the cliff.
Looking around, the sky and the earth are still the familiar dim color, and the mountains in the distance are also gray.
The cliff at his feet was dotted with a lot of emerald green as always.
Yang Che did not release his consciousness, but stopped at the top of the cliff for a moment before flying down.
The bottom of the cliff is very deep, with countless thick old vines and jagged rocks scattered all over the cliff.
After passing through a deep pool, Yang Che finally came to this hidden village again.
In front of the village, there are still shady old trees, farmland and streams, and gurgling water.
Fifteen years later, nothing seems to have changed here.
However, when Yang Che's consciousness swept away, he discovered that many people were missing from the village.
Several old mortals who were originally in their twilight years are no longer here, and Yang Che is not surprised by this.
What surprised him was that the female village head Shi Miao, who had an ordinary appearance but an extraordinary temperament, and Tong Gui, Tong Ping'an and his grandson were not in the village either.
Originally, Yang Che was quite looking forward to seeing if Tong Ping'an, the tough-headed kid back then, had gotten married and started a business now.
If I remember correctly, Tong Pingan should be twenty-four or five years old now, right?
Yang Che pondered for a long time, revealed his cultivation control to the early stage of Nascent Soul, and deliberately released his aura.
After a while, several monks walked out of the village.
The leader of the group is a young monk, tall, tough-looking, and in the middle stage of pill formation.
Yang Che recognized at a glance that this young man was Guo Kun, the other alchemy monk in Luoyou Village besides the village head Shi Miao.
Behind Guo Kun, Shi Luo, a bearded man with bare arms and a late-stage foundation-building cultivation, followed closely.
There is also Xu Baiguan, a lean and unkempt young man who has advanced to the realm of 'fake elixir'.
The three of them recognized Yang Che almost at the same time. After looking at each other, they quickly raised their hands and saluted:
"I've met senior."
Facing the Nascent Soul cultivator who already had a "ferocious reputation" in front of them, the three of them naturally did not dare to be disrespectful.
Yang Che saw that although the three people were respectful on their faces, there were obviously complicated expressions flashing in their eyes, so he whispered to Shi Luo, who was simple and gentle:
"How come Village Chief Shi and Tong Gui and Tong Ping'an are not in the village?"
When Shi Luo saw Yang Che looking towards him, he shuddered for some reason, and then quickly said:
"Back to seniors, about seven or eight years ago, Wu Changming, the seven-star prison chief of the prison gate who ruled this area, and two other nine-star prison chiefs came to the village to inquire about your whereabouts. Village Chief Shi left with them and was never seen again. Back.
As for Tong Gui and Ping An, Tong Gui was beaten to death by Wu Changming, the director of Qixing Prison, in order to protect Ping An. Peace is also..."
When Yang Che heard this, his heart suddenly sank, and he could hardly help but immediately asked: "What happened to Ping An?"
Shi Luo was agitated again, and suddenly he didn't know what to say.
At this time, Guo Kun quickly took over and said:
"Ping An was forcibly branded as a mine slave by the Seven-Star Prison Chief Wu Changming and sent to the largest mine in his territory."
When Yang Che heard this, his heart sank again.
He was originally the Jiuxing Prison Secretary, and was granted a cultivation resource territory by Elder Qin You.
Therefore, from Elder Qin You's mouth, Yang Che already knew that after the Prisoner was entrusted with the resource territory, the Prisoner had the right to hire mortals or low-level monks in the enfeoffed area to mine the mines and caves in the entrusted territory.
And low-level monks or mortals who made serious mistakes were directly branded as slaves and engaged in the most arduous labor.
The final fate of these mine slaves was slightly better for the low-level monks, at least they could withstand it.
But ordinary mining slaves often die of exhaustion after being unable to hold on for a few years.
"Guo Kun, why did Tong Gui's ancestors and grandson end up like this? Hurry up and tell the truth in detail."
Yang Che's voice was cold, and as soon as he said these words, the temperature around him dropped sharply.
Even Guo Kun, who was in the middle stage of pill formation, couldn't help but shudder a few times.
Shi Luo and Xu Baiguan had to take out their magic weapons to resist.
Guo Kun was horrified, and he respectfully told Yang Che the details without daring to hide anything.
It turned out that the wardens back then had given an order to Luoyou Village to report any news about Yang Che.
Anyone who dares to hide it will be killed and his family will be harmed.
That's all. Naturally, no one in the entire Luoyou Village dared to object.
However, the Seven-Star Prison Superintendent named Wu Changming described Yang Che as a 'heinous' villain. This made Tong Ping'an, who was only a teenager, simply unable to bear it. He bluntly said that his 'Uncle Yang' was a good person, even if he Even if he knows the whereabouts of 'Uncle Yang', he will never tell anyone.
As a result, Wu Changming, the director of Qixing Prison, was naturally annoyed.
Wu Changming immediately took action and prepared to teach Tong Ping'an a lesson.
The old man Tong Gui was eager to protect his grandson and stood in front of Tong Ping'an. Due to his old age, he was beaten to death by Wu Changming in a few blows.
Tong Ping'an was branded a mining slave by Wu Changming and was sent to the largest mine in Wu Changming's territory. He became a mining slave with almost no hope of turning over in his lifetime.
When Yang Che learned all this, murderous intent emerged in his eyes.
With a sweep of his consciousness, he quickly located the location of the Seven Star Prison Supervisor named Wu Changming.
It is the only town within a hundred miles, Tuba Town.
With a movement, Yang Che disappeared directly from Luoyou Village and appeared in Tuba Town, fifty miles away.
This town is quite prosperous.
It runs through the two main streets, east-west and north-south, forming several extremely lively intersections with row upon row of buildings.
At one of the crossroads, there was only one building.
This building was the tallest and most luxurious mansion in Tuba Town.
The ‘Wu Mansion’ of Wu Changming, the Seven Star Prison Sergeant.
Yang Che floated in the air and easily blocked the entire Wu Mansion with a few golden seals.
He slowly landed in the spacious courtyard of the Wu Mansion and walked straight towards the old man with the highest cultivation in the mansion.
This old man was in the ‘fake infant’ realm of the great perfection of the Dan formation. At this moment, he was leisurely sitting in the luxuriously decorated ‘cave mansion’, accepting the service of several beautiful girls.
Yang Che walked into the ‘cave mansion’ quietly, still casually hitting a few seals, and everyone in the house except the old man fell unconscious.
"Who are you?"
The old man realized that someone had entered the cave, and was immediately shocked. He realized that the cultivation level of the person in front of him was definitely higher than his, so he immediately changed his words and said, "Senior, this is a cultivation resource area designated by the prison gate..."
Before the old man finished speaking, Yang Che had already strangely approached him and stretched out his hand to press on his 'head'.
After a rude 'soul search', Yang Che confirmed that this person was Wu Changming.
Yang Che also learned the route of the mine where Tong Ping'an was.
"People like you can actually cultivate to the 'fake infant' realm. It's really unfair."
Yang Che naturally thought of Tong Ping'an, a very smart child, but he didn't have immortal roots and couldn't embark on the path of cultivating immortals.
Yang Che took out a sealing talisman and sealed Wu Changming.
"Senior, who are you? I don't think I have offended you, right?"
Wu Changming secretly groaned in his heart, not knowing why this person suddenly broke in and restrained him, and seemed to have searched his soul.
Yang Che smiled coldly and said indifferently: "My name is Yang Che, you should be familiar with me, right?"
When the old man Wu Changming heard this, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Just as he was about to use the sound transmission talisman, he suddenly found that all the magic power in his body was imprisoned.
Yang Che didn't say much nonsense, and directly took Wu Changming to the mine where Tong Ping'an was.
"Wu Changming, you'd better pray that Tong Ping'an is okay."
When Wu Changming heard the three words "Tong Ping'an", his head buzzed, and his body immediately became soft and mushy like boiled noodles.
