Chapter 19 – The underground old lady, Part 15
Qiu Qianchi tightened her throat and chuckled, “You and I have a close relationship; are you pretending that you don’t know ?” When she spoke these words she had subrged her chi into her ‘dan tian’; though she didn’t speak loudly, the words reverberated far and wide. Mountains surrounded the Passionless Valley and after a while the echoes ca back with repetitions of “You don’t know ? You don’t know ?”
Jinlun Fawang, Yin Kexi and Xiaoxiang Zi and the others were watching the procession from the side; when they heard Qiu Qianchi’s voice, they knew that an eminent person had arrived and everyone looked at each other.
Gongsun Zhi saw this person was wearing a coarse grass linen gown and was holding a fan; the description of his brother in law Qiu Qianren from his wife matched this person and this person’s internal energy was amazing. But the face looked odd; it looked like the face of Zhou Botong when he was disguising himself as Xiaoxiang Zi. There must be sothing awry here. He prepared himself and said coldly, “I have never t this guest before so isn’t this close relationship a joke?”
Yin Kexi was versed in Wulin affairs; when he saw Qiu Qianchi’s coarse grass linen gown and fan, his mind lit up and asked, “Could it be that Iron Palm Water Floater Qiu Qianren senior Qiu Lao is here?”
Qiu Qianchi laughed and fluttered her fan a few tis before saying, “And I thought that all the people who knew this old and useless man had all died long ago; so there’s one remaining.”
Gongsun Zhi was unmoved and said, “Are you really Qiu Qianren? I’m afraid that it’s just so lying scoundrel.”
Qiu Qianchi was shocked and thought, “This bastard is clever; how does he know that I’m not my brother?” She couldn’t see how he saw through her and just chuckled, not replying.
Yang Guo ignored the gas of the couple and dashed over to Xiao Longnu. He held the Passionless Pill in his right hand and lifted the veil across her face with his left hand, he said, “Gu Gu, open your mouth.”
Xiao Longnu’s heart skipped a beat when she saw Yang Guo again; her shock and delight amassed together at once and she said, “You… you are indeed better.” She knew that Gongsun Zhi was an evil and cruel man; she only agreed to marry him because she wanted to save Yang Guo’s life. When Yang Guo suddenly appeared in front of her again, she thought that Gongsun Zhi had kept to his word and cured his poison.
Yang Guo placed the pill in her hand and said, “Quickly swallow!”
Xiao Longnu did not know what it was but did as she was told. After a short while, she felt a cool air penetrating through her ‘dan tian’.
The hall broke out in chaos; when Gongsun Zhi saw that Yang Guo had co here again to cause trouble, he wanted to go up and stop him; but he was worried about the concealed strange guest. He didn’t know whether or not that person really was his brother-in-law Iron Palm Water Floater Qiu Qianren and didn’t dare make a move for the ti being.
Yang Guo tore off Xiao Longnu’s Phoenix Hat and red veil; then pulled her to the side and said, “Gu Gu; that scoundrel Valley Master is going to suffer, let’s watch.”
Xiao Longnu was confused and just leaned on Yang Guo; she didn’t know what to say.
Ma Guangzuo felt unspeakable delight when he saw Yang Guo suddenly appearing here again. He went to him and kept on asking questions; the thought of him disturbing the two never entered his mind.
Yin Kexi had heard that twenty years ago, Qiu Qianren shook the world of Wulin and was extrely famous. Now he heard the laugh and shout which echoed throughout the valley; his internal energy was extrely high and he wanted to et him. He stepped forward and bowed, saying “Today is Valley Master Gongsun’s day of celebration; has Senior Qiu Lao co for the celebrations as well?”
Qiu Qianchi pointed to Gongsun Zhi and said, “Do you know who that person is to ?”
Yin Kexi said, “I don’t know, but I would like to know.”
Qiu Qianchi said, “You need to ask him yourself.”
Gongsun Zhi asked again, “Are you really the Iron Palm Water Floater? That’s strange!” He clapped his hands and said to a disciple in green, “Go to the library and bring the box from the shelf on the eastern side to .”
Lu E did not know what to do and just pulled a chair over for her mother to sit down in.
Gongsun Zhi was surprised, “How co she and that Yang scum are still alive after falling into the crocodile pool?”
In a short while, the disciple returned with the box and handed it over to Gongsun Zhi. Gongsun Zhi opened it and took out a letter. He said frostily, “Years ago, I received a letter from Qiu Qianren. If you really are Qiu Qianren then this letter is a fake.”
Qiu Qianchi was shocked and thought, “Ever since brother and I argued, we’ve never contacted each other; why did he send a letter to all of a sudden? What’s in the letter?” She then said loudly, “When did I write a letter to you? That really is a load of bull.”
