Chapter 1053 [The Untamed 27]
Wei Wuxian, Youyou and Xue Yang came to Nevernight together. This was the territory of the Wen family. As soon as they arrived, they saw Nie Huaisang and Jin Zixuan, but strangely, they did not see Lan Wangji.
At this moment, Wen Chao came out with a swagger, and he asked someone to bring Lan Wangji up with a smug look on his face. After a while, Lan Wangji was brought up, and he looked cold and calm, wearing a white robe, like an immortal descending to earth.
In order to show off his power, Wen Chao confiscated everyone's swords on the spot. Although everyone was dissatisfied, they did not dare to disobey. Only Jin Zixuan refused to obey. Wen Chao's face darkened when he saw this. Just as he was about to explode, he saw a female disciple of the Jin family, Mianmian, stand up.
Mianmian was very pretty. She said to Wen Chao with a smile, "Mr. Wen, don't be angry. Jin Zixuan is a stubborn person. You are a magnanimous person. Don't bother with him." After saying that, she threw a coquettish glance at Wen Chao.
Wen Chao was in a good mood after being coaxed by Mianmian. He laughed and said, "For the sake of you, a little girl, I won't bother with him. However, the sword still has to be handed over." After that, he had someone forcibly confiscated Jin Zixuan's sword.
After dealing with this matter, Wen Chao had people give everyone a copy of "Wen Clan's Essence Records" and told everyone that this book recorded the glorious deeds of the Wen Clan's ancestors and asked everyone to memorize the contents. If anyone couldn't recite it, they would be punished according to the Wen Clan's family rules.
Everyone had no choice but to take the book. At this time, Wen Qing went to visit Wen Ning, and Wen Ning mentioned that Wen Ruohan had asked many children from aristocratic families to come to Qishan, wondering if Wei Wuxian was among them.
When Wen Qing heard this, her heart suddenly tightened. She remembered Wen Ruohan's threats to her before, and she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. She quickly warned her brother not to get involved with Wei Wuxian, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Wen Ning grumbled in dissatisfaction. He had a good impression of Wei Wuxian.
Wen Chao began to call on everyone to recite "The Essence of the Wen Family". Lan Wangji claimed that he couldn't do it, but Wei Wuxian volunteered with a smile. As a result, he recited the Lan family rules. Wen Chao became furious and ordered Lan Wangji, Wei Wuxian and Jin Zixuan to go to the vegetable garden to pick up manure.
Although the three of them were reluctant, they had no choice but to do as they were told. As they were carrying the stinking manure in the vegetable garden, Wei Wuxian was still thinking about the whereabouts of the Yin Iron. He wanted to ask Lan Wangji, but was afraid of attracting other people's attention.
Finally, he found an opportunity and quietly touched Lan Wangji's shoulder to get his attention. However, what Wei Wuxian had never expected was that Lan Wangji, who was always indifferent and never interacted with others, suddenly shuddered as if he had been electrocuted, and the dung bucket in his hand was thrown to the ground with a "bang".
This sudden movement immediately attracted Wen Chao's attention. He walked over quickly and saw the dung all over the floor and the miserable Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji. He was immediately furious and without saying a word, he raised the whip in his hand and lashed them hard.
Lan Wangji's face turned ugly. He tightly grasped the whip, his eyes blazing with fire. He had obviously reached the limit of his endurance. Wen Chao was a little frightened when he saw this, but he still pretended to be calm and continued to provoke: "Why, Second Master Lan, do you still want to resist?"
Lan Wangji gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word from between his teeth: "Wen Chao, don't go too far!"
Wen Chao sneered and said, "I'm being too much? You two were slacking off here and even overturned the dung bucket. Isn't that your fault?"
Seeing this, Wei WuXian quickly explained: “Master Wen, this was really an accident, we didn’t do it on purpose…”
“Shut up!” Wen Chao interrupted Wei Wuxian, “I think you guys did this on purpose! Also, don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to. Don’t you just want to find the Yin Iron? I’m telling you, the Yin Iron is already in my hands!”
Wei Wuxian and Lan Wangji's faces turned extremely ugly when they heard this. They didn't expect that Wen Chao had actually obtained the Yin Iron in Lan Wangji's hand.
Wen Chao laughed triumphantly and continued, “Now, we in the Wen Clan already have three pieces of Yin Iron, and we are just missing the last piece. I guess that last piece is either with that mysterious man in black, or... it was hidden by you, Wei Wuxian!”
Wei WuXian quickly shook his head and said, “I didn’t, I really didn’t!”
Wen Chao didn't believe him at all. He waved his hand and ordered his men, "Take Wei Wuxian to the dungeon and let him have a taste of our Wen Clan's might!"
Lan Wangji was anxious to stop Wen Chao from taking Wei Wuxian away, but his strength was limited after all, and he could not resist the forceful dragging of Wen Chao and his men. Seeing Wei Wuxian being taken further and further away, Lan Wangji was filled with helplessness and anxiety.
On a mountain not far away, Wen Ning stood there quietly, witnessing all this happening. His eyes were empty and confused, as if he had lost his soul. Seeing this, Wen Qing hurried over, grabbed Wen Ning's arm, and whispered, "Aning, stop looking, let's go!"
However, Wen Ning seemed to be frozen in place, not moving at all. His eyes were always fixed on the direction where Wei Wuxian was taken away, and he seemed to have not heard his sister's call at all. Wen Qing saw this and became more and more anxious. She shook Wen Ning's body vigorously and shouted, "Aning! Can you hear me? Come with me!"
Finally, Wen Ning slowly came back to his senses, with a flash of pain and helplessness in his eyes. He silently followed Wen Qing and turned away, never looking back at the heartbreaking scene.
At the same time, Wei Wuxian was taken away and brought to a closed room. The room was filled with a foul smell and was dark, with only a weak oil lamp swaying in the corner. Although Wei Wuxian felt a little uneasy, he did not show it. After all, he was not afraid of anything.
However, when he saw the huge vicious dog in the center of the room, his face turned pale instantly. The dog was huge, with a hideous face, and it kept growling from time to time. Wei Wuxian's body trembled involuntarily, and his mind kept flashing back to the terrible scene of being chased by a dog when he was a child.
“Hahahaha…” Wen Chao laughed proudly, “Wei Wuxian, aren’t you very powerful? Why are you so scared now?” As he said that, he waved his hand violently, and the giant dog pounced towards Wei Wuxian like an arrow.
