Chapter 360 - 360: What’s in the Box?
After his breathing became smooth, Eighth Brother opened his eyes.
He saw Xu Wenping’s cold smile and a silver needle dangling in front of him.
“I’ll ask a question, and you’ll answer it. If your answer is wrong, 1’11 give you a needle and let you enjoy the ultimate thrill.”
Xu Wenping’s face was very clean. It could even be said that he was harmless.
However, it was this face that made Eighth Brother feel extremely disappointed.
Just now, Xu Wenping’s ghost-like movement technique, ghost-like movements, and his iron-hooped palm had brought him extreme fear.
Now…
Xu Wenping was so close to him that they could hear each other’s breathing.
He was certain that Xu Wenping was not a ghost, but a person.
However, the more this was the case, the more he felt the fear in his heart reach its peak.
Such a person was so powerful. His martial arts were so powerful that he felt like a ghost.
Such a person, his technique was so brilliant.
Such a person…
He didn’t know what words to use to describe Xu Wenping, but in Eighth Brother’s eyes, Xu Wenping was simply a demon, a real demon.
His smile was the smile of a devil.
So he shivered, then narrowed his eyes and said, “1,1,1’11 speak, don’t… don’t do anything to me, okay?”
When he said this, he was almost crying.
Really, he was crying now.
Meeting Xu Wenping was simply the biggest nightmare of his life.
“Very good.”
Xu Wenping looked at Eighth Brother and smiled faintly. “Tell me,” he asked, “what kind of treasure is in the box in Brother Black Rock’s hand? Why do you all covet it so much?”
As he asked, he turned to look at Black Rock, who was still sitting there paralyzed.
Black Rock sat listlessly. Of course, he heard Xu Wenping’s question, but he didn’t show any excitement.
However, his eyes were fixed on Xu Wenping, as if he was considering who this uninvited guest was.
Hearing Xu Wenping asking what was in the file box in Black Rock’s hand, Eighth Brother’s body couldn’t help but tremble.
Of course, he knew what was in the box.
If he were to tell others and the chest was taken away, it would be fine if he died. However, if he were to go back, wouldn’t the sect blame him?
When he thought of this, his eyes started to drift.
To Xu Wenping, he wanted to say it, but he didn’t dare to.
It was also at this moment that the silver needle in Xu Wenping’s hand pierced down.
The silver needle pierced into Eighth Brother’s acupuncture point, and it was about four to five inches deep.
In the beginning, Eighth Brother didn’t feel anything.
However…
Not long after, he felt as if his body was crawling with small bugs.
Those little bugs were very powerful. As they crawled, they began to bite his flesh.
That feeling was as if he was about to be cut into pieces by a thousand knives.
At first, it was numb, but later, it was painful. Moreover, every part of his body was in unbearable pain.
In the end, he was in so much pain that he began to hallucinate.
“Ahhhhh…”
The pain surged like a tidal wave, and Eighth Brother’s body trembled.
He felt that his body was no longer his.
His soul seemed to be flying out along with the pain.
Tears also flowed out of his eyes. Feeling the extreme pain, he finally couldn’t hold it in anymore. He shouted loudly, “1’11 talk! I’ll talk! Spare me, please spare me!”
As he spoke, he was already covered in tears and snot.
Xu Wenping raised his hand and gently pulled out the silver needle.
When the silver needle was removed, Eighth Brother’s body trembled for a moment and finally returned to normal.
After his complexion returned to normal, he felt much more relaxed.
He looked at Xu Wenping, then at Black Rock, who was sitting there limply. He gritted his teeth and said, “There’s a book in his box. It’s said that many cultivators covet it. There’s also a bottle of medicine. It’s said that it can cleanse the marrow.”
As he said this, his eyes flickered.
According to the information he knew, there should be something else in the box that would make cultivators scramble for it.
However, he did not say it out loud.
He only hoped that by saying this, Xu Wenping would not continue to ask.
As for the fact that he could get the box and open it to see what was inside, it was not his fault.
Xu Wenping glanced at Eighth Brother’s flickering expression and naturally saw some clues.
However, when he turned to look at Black Rock, he saw that Black Rock’s expression was still calm, and his gaze toward him did not seem to be any fiercer. He could not help but smile.
“You haven’t told me the truth yet. Do you think that the acupuncture 1 gave you just now only caused a little pain?”
Xu Wenping shook the silver needle in his hand again. He said in a threatening tone, “If you don’t tell the truth, 1 guarantee that my second needle will make you feel that living in this world is unnecessary. You will definitely have a strong desire to die. How about it?”
When he said it was time, the silver needle in his hand slowly approached Eighth Brother.
The needle had yet to pierce his body, but the pressure was already on him.
Looking at Xu Wenping in horror, Eighth Brother’s body trembled. Then, he said in an extremely trembling voice, “I, I…”
“I’ll give you a needle.”
By the time he finished speaking, the silver needle had already pierced into his acupuncture point.
Since he didn’t want to say it, Xu Wenping would help him speed up.
After the silver needle pierced into the acupuncture point, Eighth Brother’s body trembled violently.
Then, his face turned pale, and his body trembled even more violently.
“Ah…”
His scream was louder than before, but just as he screamed, Xu Wenping pointed at his throat.
Immediately, he could no longer scream.
He only screamed toward the sky, but unfortunately, there was no sound at all.
Xu Wenping smiled and turned to look at Black Rock, who was sitting on the ground. His expression became a little playful.
Even though he was just teaching Eighth Brother a lesson, he was actually doing it for Black Rock to see.
He could tell that Black Rock was not a good person.
Compared to Eighth Brother and the others, he should not be inferior.
There was indeed a subtle change in Black Rock’s expression. At the very least, there was a momentary loss of focus in his eyes.
Xu Wenping smiled and turned around to look at Eighth Brother.
At this moment, Eighth Brother’s screams weakened slightly. After all, even if he did not make much noise, it still required a lot of strength.
When he didn’t have much strength left, his body went limp.
Xu Wenping smiled and pulled out the silver needle from Eighth Brother’s body.
He also unsealed his mute acupoint.
“How is it? Will you tell me?”
“Tell, tell, tell. I’ll tell you. Don’t torture me. I’ll tell you everything..”
