Chapter 175 Madmen and Madmen
In the cell, a wrinkled face slowly emerged from the darkness.
He looked at Ding Yi outside the railing, then grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Hehehe, is this the Book of Song? Is it really the Book of Song?"
The old man gripped the railing with both hands, uttering a sharp sound.
Ding Yi, standing outside the railing, looked at the old man and felt somewhat disappointed.
Aside from the strong heartbeat, he couldn't detect any robust blood and energy in the old man, which meant that the old man's blood and energy were depleted, and he might not even be at the Blood Exchange Realm.
At that moment, the old man was still clinging to the railing, repeatedly asking:
"Is it the Book of Song? Is it the Book of Song?"
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi frowned slightly, and then said:
"You've mistaken me for someone else. I am not Song Shu."
"No, you are!!"
To Ding Yi's surprise, the old man suddenly roared at him like a madman, and a terrifying look appeared in the gray eyes on his wrinkled face.
"Is he really a madman?"
Ding Yi was taken aback, then prepared to go back, but suddenly remembered something and said to the old man:
"I am Song Shu, what do you want to say?"
"what?"
The old man was taken aback by Ding Yi's words and stood there stunned for a moment.
"Did you hear me! I'm Song Shu! What do you want to say?!"
Ding Yi suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the iron bars, and roared at the old man inside the cell.
"I..."
Startled by Ding Yi's shout, the old man's eyes gradually became unfocused, and he murmured:
"Song Shu, it's you, Song Shu! Hahahaha! You're not dead!!!!"
As the old man spoke, he suddenly became as excited as a child, pointing at Ding Yi and bursting into laughter.
"Song Shu, I killed Xiang'er! I killed her!!"
The old man suddenly burst into tears, saying at the same time.
"What! You killed Xiang'er?! Why?!"
Ding Yi looked at the old man and continued to shout.
"I don't know, I don't know..."
“Answer me!!”
Ding Yi ignored the old man and pressed his face against the railing, yelling at him.
"She wants to worship the gods! It's her who wants to worship the gods! Waaaaaah!"
The old man was startled by Ding Yi's roar, then slumped to the ground and began to sob.
Seeing the old man like this, Ding Yi roared again:
"Tell me, do you know the secret techniques of the Primordial Aperture?!"
The old man was taken aback and asked, somewhat bewildered:
Yes, but...
"But you son of a bitch, you don't even want to talk to me?!"
Ding Yi continued to roar.
"Not really, but... but didn't you teach me this?"
The old man asked with some doubt.
"I forgot!"
Ding Yi was taken aback, but quickly realized what was happening.
"That's it."
The old man suddenly stopped sobbing, then got up from the ground and returned to the iron bars, carefully examining Ding Yi outside through the gaps.
You seem to have lost some weight.
"The food hasn't been good lately!"
Your face looks a bit dark.
"Apply wax to prevent cold!"
"You seem to have grown a bit taller."
"I'm wearing thick-soled cotton shoes!"
The two exchanged questions and answers, and the old man in the cell gradually became excited.
"It really is Song Shu! I thought you were dead!!"
"Get me out of here! This place stinks!"
The old man shouted at Ding Yi.
Ding Yi didn't move. Instead, he took a few steps back, took out the Flowing Sand Map from his pocket, glanced at it in the dim light of the corridor, and then smiled and said:
"Don't worry, let me call someone to come and rescue you."
After saying that, Ding Yi hurriedly walked out.
Once outside the cave, the two henchmen standing at the entrance quickly straightened up and smiled at Ding Yi, saying:
"Elder Li, are you done with your work?"
"Bring that madman out here for me."
Ding Yi gave the two direct orders.
"Huh? Elder Li, if that old madman gets away, he'll be hard to catch. Are you sure?"
One of them asked somewhat nervously.
"Nonsense, I'll talk to the sect leader myself, hurry up!"
Ding Yi roared.
"Yes Yes Yes!"
One person took the key and hurried downstairs. Soon after, the sound of light footsteps could be heard coming from the cave entrance.
At that moment, the mad old man, with his hands in shackles, was pushed out by the gang members who had gone down.
Perhaps because he hadn't seen sunlight for so long, the old man squinted as soon as he stepped out, exclaiming:
"The Book of Song, the Book of Song!"
"I'm here!"
Ding Yi shouted.
"You can't leave me, Song Shu!"
Upon hearing the sound, the old man lunged at Ding Yi, grabbing his leg and howling.
"Bold!!"
"presumptuous!"
Two loud shouts came from the two gang members as they walked towards the old man, trying to pull Ding Yi away.
Ding Yi waved his hand, interrupting the two men, then pulled the old man up and said:
"Come on, I'll take you back first."
"Wow, Song Shu, you're the best!"
Upon hearing this, the old man burst into tears.
When Ding Yi led the old man away, the two gang members exchanged a glance.
One of them said:
"It won't be a problem, right?"
"He's an elder, and he's bringing someone with him. What can we say?"
The other person said helplessly.
"Should we talk to the sect leader about this?"
"Go if you want, but don't end up like last time, getting nothing in return and getting yourself into trouble!"
The other person shook their head.
On the other side, Ding Yi led the old man back to his courtyard and then began to ask:
"I've forgotten your name."
"Did you break your head? I'm Mingyue!"
"Jiang Mingyue!"
The old man straightened his chest as he spoke.
"Jiang Mingyue? Never heard of her."
Ding Yi shook his head, then asked:
How did you end up here?
"I came here to find you! I don't know how I ended up here. Speaking of which, I haven't eaten in a long time. Do you have anything to eat?"
The old man asked somewhat embarrassedly.
"What, they didn't give you food in the cell?"
Ding Yi was taken aback.
"No, not at all. But those things didn't taste good, so I fed them to the mice."
The old man chuckled.
"So, you've been starving inside all this time?"
Ding Yi was genuinely shocked this time.
"Yes, please let me eat something, Song Shu! I'm starving!"
The old man was about to go crazy again, which left Ding Yi feeling helpless.
"Wait here, I'll have someone prepare something for you to eat."
After Ding Yi finished speaking, he walked out of the courtyard and called to his servant to prepare some meat and wine to be brought over.
When Ding Yi returned to the courtyard, he found that the old man was gone again.
"Damn it, Jiang Mingyue, where have you been again?"
Ding Yi couldn't help but roar.
"Here I am, Song Shu!"
The next moment, a voice came from above Ding Yi's head.
Ding Yi looked up and realized that Jiang Mingyue had climbed up the tree at some point and was lying on a branch, waving at him.
What were you doing up there?
Ding Yi was taken aback.
“I used to sleep in trees before I came here, Song Shu.”
The old man chuckled.
"Come down, I have something to ask you."
Ding Yi had a bit of a headache, but he still waved for the old man to come down.
"I'm coming."
As the old man spoke, he quickly climbed down from the tree and returned to Ding Yi's side.
"Song Shu, just say what's on your mind. We're like family."
The old man said with a smile.
