C89 Struggle for secrets (1/2)

Xin Shuangqing waved his hand and said, ”Calm down. This is a very important matter, and we must not act rashly. We'll first bring him back to the Sword Lake Palace and serve him food and drinks, then interrogate him in detail.”

Li Qiang immediately stood up and excitedly said, ”This is for the best. If you can entertain me well, I will tell you everything I know.”

Xin Shuangqing looked at Li Qiang and saw that he had no fear on his face. He thought to himself, ”Could it be that you're not afraid at all?”

Li Qiang calmly smiled and said, ”What's there to be afraid of? You're all family members, would you even harm me?”

Xin Shuangqing shook his head. He felt that the person in front of him was very strange, but he couldn't pinpoint exactly where he was, so he could only bring Li Qiang to the Sword Lake Palace. He found a random room for him to stay in and let him change into a clean set of daoist robes before bringing him food.

The food in the Immeasurable Sword Sect was very simple. Three plates of vegetables and a bowl of rice were already considered delicious for Li Qiang. He immediately wolfed it down.

Xin Shuqing couldn't help but laugh at his comical way of eating. ”Are you a reincarnated hungry ghost? Eat slowly, and no one will snatch it away from you.”

Li Qiang burped and drank a bowl of tea before saying, ”To tell you the truth, miss, when I was both hungry and sleepy, I really thought I was going to turn into a ghost.”

Xin Shuangqing probed, ”Where are you from? From the sound of it, you don't sound like a local.”

Li Qiang said, ”I'm from Dali City. I came here to sightsee, but there was an accident on the river. That's why I'm here.”

Xin Shuangqing said, ”Since you're not a local, how do you know about the Immeasurable Jade Wall?”

Li Qiang immediately said, ”That's because a long time ago, I read a book that had the story of the Infinity Jade Wall written on it.”

Xin Shuangqing thought, ”This person doesn't seem to be speaking truthfully. I'll ask him again to find out more about him.” He then asked, ”Then tell me, how did you read the story?”

Li Qiang thought this was funny. ”I'm familiar with this story from the bottom of my heart. It comes the moment I open my mouth.” He said, ”You Immeasurable Sword Sect people have seen a male and a female immortal sword dance on the Immeasurable Jade Wall, right? Then the man left and only the woman was left to swing her sword, wasn't she? ”
