Of course Fang Wei knew Yan Song. Not only that, when he was the master of the Spiritual Path, Liu Qishuang, he had dealt with him many times. Even a lot of information about the Spiritual Path and Tianwen Mountain came from him.
Fang Wei was indeed suspicious of Tianwen Mountain, but most of his guesses were about the head of the mountain, Yan Lishan. In comparison, Cheng Song, as Yan Lishan's disciple, was always the one being ignored.
But now I think about it, maybe it is precisely because of this that this organization has existed for such a long time without being discovered.
Thinking of this, Fang Wei fell silent. After knowing the truth, many things from the past began to be connected together.
Hua Shi stared at Fang Wei's thoughtful expression without interrupting his thoughts. Only when he felt that he had finished did he ask in a low voice, "Is the result of my investigation okay?"
Fang Wei shook her head: "You're right, I should have suspected his problem earlier."
In the battle a thousand years ago, it was the leader of Hanxi clan who plotted against him at a critical moment, causing him to fall into the abyss. The other party must know about the abyss beast, and the person behind the scenes is likely hoping that his appearance will allow the abyss beast to break the seal and come out.
There are not many people in this world who know about the giant beast, so Fang Wei naturally thought of Yan Lishan, the head of Tianwen Mountain. However, he overlooked that Yan Lishan’s disciple Cheng Song is actually more than two thousand years old, so it should not be surprising for him to know these things.
But he didn't expect Cheng Song to be able to secretly control his master and take control of the entire Tianwen Mountain. I don't know whether this was due to Yan Lishan's carelessness or Cheng Song's long-term planning.
Fang Wei responded to Hua Shi in this way, and Hua Shi was obviously happy about it. If he was in a spiritual state like Fang Wei, his tail would probably be wagging now.
However, Fang Wei quickly looked at Hua Shi and shook his head, saying, "Although you did find out the truth this time, I am still very angry that you risked your life."
Hua Shi was stunned for a moment, and then he said hesitantly, "Are you angry?"
He observed Fang Wei carefully, and then he found that Fang Wei had no expression on her face the whole time she listened to him talking. It was just that Fang Wei's emotions rarely fluctuated normally. He would often smile because of him, but he was almost never angry, so Hua Shi had not noticed anything unusual about Fang Wei before.
How can I calm down an angry boyfriend?
Everything he had read in his previous life and this life flashed through Hua Shi's mind, but he had mostly read textbooks in the past, and after he came to this world, all he read were novels and legends full of fighting and killing. When it came to love, he really relied on his instincts, but his instincts did not have the tricks to deal with such situations.
He could only say pitifully what every fool would say when he makes a mistake: "I won't do it again next time."
Fang Wei: “…”
He didn't really want Hua Shi to make any promises, he said helplessly: "I will find you a substitute amulet and keep it with you at all times in the future, otherwise I won't be able to rest assured about you."
Hua Shiben was prepared to face Fang Wei's blame, but he didn't expect Fang Wei to say this first. He was stunned again, blinked and looked at Fang Wei and said, "Is that it?"
Fang Wei seemed to be confused about what Hua Shi meant. Since he was already angry and had said it, wasn't it enough? And more importantly, hadn't he found a solution to Hua Shi's safety problem?
Hua Shi looked at Fang Wei's reaction and knew that what he thought was probably right. He couldn't help but sigh softly, his heart soft and warm. He hugged Fang Wei back into his arms, sighed and said, "Why are you so nice? You can scold me or blame me at this time. Why are you so polite and reasonable even when you are angry?"
Fang Wei didn't know what was wrong with this person that made him so shameless and ask for trouble.
He shook his head and brought the subject back on track: "Are you hurt?"
Although he saved his life with the substitute talisman, I think with Hua Shi's strength, he should not be forced into such a situation. He must be injured so he dare not show up, and he can't even leave, so he can only hide in this forest.
Hua Shi just heard Fang Wei say that he was angry, so he naturally didn't dare to hide anything now, and quickly confessed: "The injury is not serious, just injured by the spiritual power, not even the skin is injured, I will recover soon after recuperation, don't worry." He probably guessed that Fang Wei judged that he was injured, so he quickly explained: "The reason I didn't leave immediately was actually because I had other things to do, Weiwei, come with me."
Fang Wei paused for a moment before he remembered that Hua Shi was calling him. He was held in Hua Shi's arms, and then he saw the other party walking through the woods for a while, and finally found a secret passage under a rock.
Almost the moment she saw the secret passage, Fang Wei understood: "Yan Lishan?"
Since Cheng Song controlled Tianwen Mountain, and the Yan Lishan in the residence of the leader of Tianwen Mountain was a puppet, the real Yan Lishan must no longer be here. He might have been hidden by Cheng Song, or he might have hidden himself. Since Hua Shi was able to discover the truth and knew so many things, he might have found the real Yan Lishan.
As Fang Wei said, Hua Shi nodded and said, "I found this place when I was escaping. I saw Elder Yan when I came in. But he is not in good condition now."
Hua Shi carefully led Fang Wei into the secret passage. There was not even a light in the secret passage, so Hua Shi simply summoned out the evil spirit. The evil spirit was still translucent, with silver light flashing on its body, which served as a lighting purpose.
The evil spirit had a very sour look on his face the whole time, but he did not show any surprise at this behavior. It was obvious that he had become accustomed to Hua Shi's operations over the years.
Fang Wei looked at this scene: "..."
Judging from the fact that the hot-tempered evil spirit actually acquiesced to Hua Shi's actions and did not tear the other party apart, he felt that the two of them probably got along well over the years.
He went deep into the secret passage and finally saw some light ahead. When he got closer, Fang Wei finally saw the scene in the secret room clearly. The person sitting cross-legged on the bed was indeed Yan Lishan, but he looked much older than before. His hands hung low at his sides, and heavy shackles were tied around his wrists, which seemed to be emitting coldness.
After noticing the movement, he raised his head and looked at Fang Wei and Hua Shi. His eyes were cloudy and seemed to have lost their luster long ago.
The expression on Hua Shi's face gradually calmed down. He said softly, "Mr. Yan", and then put Fang Wei down.
Fang Wei was standing on the stone platform in front of Yan Lishan. He carefully checked the other party's condition and looked into his eyes. After a while, he spoke: "The spiritual power is still there, it's just suppressed, and the realm of cultivation has not degraded. However, the shackles on his hands are made of special materials and have runes..."
"It's useless." The old man on the stone bed rolled his dry Adam's apple up and down, making a harsh and dry sound, "There's no way back. This thing took him more than 30 years to forge a heavenly magic weapon. Even the devil Fang Wei, who was famous all over the world in the past, can't unlock these shackles."
Fang Wei was interrupted, but he didn't care. He glanced at him and continued, "...Because it is still protected by the rune, it will take more time to unlock it."
After he said this, the stone chamber fell into silence.
In order to save Yan Lishan's face, Hua Shi coughed twice and asked, "How long will it take?"
Fang Wei said: "Three hours."
Hua Shi nodded quickly: "Well, that is indeed very strenuous."
Yan Lishan: “…”
He was in a trance before, until now, when he saw Fang Wei and Hua Shi talking to each other in front of him, his eyes gradually widened, and then his face suddenly changed and he became excited. He said to Fang Wei with a trembling body: "Is it you? Liu Qishuang?"
Fang Wei did not correct the other party's address, because Yan Lishan had been trapped for an unknown period of time, and it was difficult to explain his identity. It was obviously not appropriate to say it at this time. He just nodded and replied: "It's me, Mr. Yan."
Yan Lishan said quickly, "You...wait, how did you become like this? How did you come here? How long has it been? Is your master okay? I remember that he was attacked and seriously injured. It seems that...Who is in charge of Lingdao now? Could it be that evil villain Cheng Song?"
Fang Wei said nothing, and his expression remained silent.
Hua Shi blinked repeatedly when he heard this, and couldn't help but call out to the other party, "Senior, wait, it's not like that..."
It seemed that the information the other party knew was several versions behind theirs, so Hua Shi had to stop him from talking and then told him roughly what had happened over the years.
Only now did they realize that Yan Lishan had been imprisoned for such a long time, and Yan Lishan had no idea of everything that had happened from the time Fang Wei became the Master of the Spiritual Path under the identity of Liu Qishuang to the present.
After finishing his words, Hua Shicai finally said, "Senior, please wait here for a while. We will rescue you from this forbidden area soon."
Yan Lishan seemed to have finally seen hope after so many years, and he was completely awake. He was very emotional, but he did not forget to remind Hua Shi and Fang Wei: "The forbidden area is surrounded by restrictions left by the evil disciple. If not, I would not have been trapped here for so long. Now that you have come to this forbidden area, it may not be so easy to get out." He looked at the two of them carefully, "What's more, one of you is injured, and the other has no spiritual power."
He lowered his head with a bitter smile and looked at his shackled hands: "And now I am like this."
Hua Shi shook his head and said, "Don't worry, senior. Since I have said this, there must be a way. Although we can't leave in this state, we can still call for help."
Fang Wei had never worried that the problem could not be solved. After hearing what Hua Shi said, Fang Wei asked, "Have you already used the spell to inform everyone?"
Hua Shi finally took out a talisman from his sleeve at this time, raised it and said with a smile: "Yes, I have contacted the seniors since the substitute talisman was destroyed. I believe the seniors are on their way now." He said this, lowered his head and said to the talisman in his hand: "Master, am I right?"
Xuan Shuzhi's calm voice soon came from the spell: "I'm listening. I've been listening since the evil master said he was angry. My teeth are sore from listening to him."
Then Yi Zhan's voice came: "You are really brave, aren't you afraid of losing your life?"
Ji Yuan's voice followed closely behind: "Hua Shi, I warn you not to make Ah Shuang angry!!"
Then there were the voices of several seniors. Everyone was on their way. The deserted stone chamber suddenly became lively because of the sounds coming from the talismans.
