Qi Jin gripped the reins with difficulty with one hand, and hung weakly on one side with the other.

Blood trickled down his sleeve, his consciousness blurred, and his eyelids became heavier.

"Da Lang!!"

Qi Lingxian, who was following closely behind Qi Jinzhi, saw that his son was about to fall off the horse, so he hurriedly shouted, kicked the horse with his feet, rushed to Qi Jinzhi's side in a few breaths, raised the horsewhip and rolled up Qi Jinzhi, and with a sharp force on his wrist, he directly pulled the person to his horse.

"Father, father, I, I~~"

Being made by Qi Lingxian like this, Qi Jinzhi sobered up a little, and he crouched on the horse's back, his face pale.

Qi Ling put away the horsewhip first, glanced behind him with the corner of his eye, and found that there were still black-clothed people in hot pursuit, while the few remaining guards of the Qi family fell from their horses one by one, either dead or seriously injured.

There were only two of them in the narrow alley, seeing this, Qi Lingxian couldn't help but curse, "Damn! ”

"Da Lang, hold on, our father and son can't explain here today!"

As he spoke, Qi Ling first waved his whip, took out the strength to charge on the battlefield, drove the horse that stepped off, and galloped desperately in the alley.

Xu is people were stimulated to the greatest potential of their bodies at the moment of crisis, and Xu is Qi Lingxian's horse and the master's heart, only to see a black shadow flashing, and a horse and two people flew as if they disappeared in the alley.

The men in black who followed closely behind couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, but they were all well-trained dead soldiers, and they quickly reacted and chased down the alley.

Qi Ling rode his horse at a gallop, the wind whistling in his ears, and the faint sound of horses' hooves.

The pursuers are approaching!

And the son's breath was faint.

Qi Lingxian's face was grim, he had lived all these years, he didn't know how many times he had been on the battlefield, and he didn't know how many times he had faced danger, he had never feared or retreated.

But this time, it made him feel inexplicably hopeless.

No, many secrets have not been revealed, the crisis of the family has not been resolved, and he can't die!

Qi Ling gritted his teeth first, he just wanted to get rid of the chase as soon as possible, he didn't care about looking at the road at all, and he was bent on running in a secluded direction.

In the end, he plunged headlong into a dilapidated courtyard.

"Huh? It's so familiar......"

Finally couldn't hear the sound of horses' hooves behind him, Qi Lingxian grabbed the reins, looked intently left and right, and couldn't help frowning when he saw the familiar building.

"Hmm~~"

Just when Qi Lingxian was thinking hard, Qi Jinzhi woke him up with a groan.

"Dalang, how's it going?" Qi Ling first jumped off the horse, and then carefully picked up Qi Jinzhi and put him on the ground.

The arrow was still stuck in Qi Jinzhi's right shoulder, and the blood had already stained the sleeve red, and it was wet.

Qi Ling avoided the arrows first, tore open the sleeves of his shirt hard, and saw that the wound did not appear black, so he was slightly relieved, "Fortunately, it is not poisonous." ”

Qi Jinzhi opened his eyes, subconsciously moaned, and when he saw the surrounding environment clearly, he asked in a low voice, "Father, are we out of danger?" ”

Qi Lingxian was about to speak to comfort his son, but suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, his eyes stared at the collapsed door, and muttered, "It's actually here?!" ”

"Where? Father, what's wrong? Your face is very bad, could it be that you are also injured? ”

Qi Jinzhi saw that Qi Lingxian's expression was wrong, and he struggled to sit up.

Qi Lingxian didn't speak, looking at the ruins in front of him distractedly.

"Father?" Qi Jinzhi finally found the target that Qi Lingxian was concerned about, and looked along his line of sight, but only saw a mansion that was almost flooded by wild grass.

At this moment, the door panel of the house that was thought to be deserted suddenly sounded, and several figures cautiously poked out.

Qi Ling was startled at first, and was about to touch the knife, but when he saw the appearance of the person who came, he couldn't help but exclaim: "Why are you?" Y-Why are you here? ”

Qi Jinzhi was also surprised.

They can't blame their father and son for making a fuss, it's really a surprise to them that someone came.

A few figures were not bystanders, but acquaintances they had seen at the royal banquet an hour ago.

"Old Man Gu? Grandpa Xiao? And Grandpa Yang?! ”

Qi Ling first lost his mind and muttered, pointing out the identities of several people, of course, in addition to these three grandfathers, there were also one or two injured juniors around them.

Qi Jinzhi's throat tightened, and his gaze swept over several young people who couldn't be more familiar. These people, like Qi Jinzhi, are all descendants and nephews of the four major powers, and their current situation is the same as Qi Jinzhi, and they are all not lightly injured.

"You're here too!"

British Gong Yang Xuan frowned, glanced at the embarrassed Qi family father and son, and said in a heavy tone: "We have been designed!" ”

It is all too clear that things have developed to this point.

"Hmph, it seems that someone wants to wipe out all of our four major mansions!"

Wei Guogong sneered, "I, Xiao, want to see who is behind his back, his appetite is really not small, but I don't know if I can swallow all four of us in one gulp?!" ”

……

"Strict, strict?"

The county lord of Qinghe is not a person who has not experienced wind and waves, but the scene that happened in front of her was so unexpected that she almost lost the ability to think, and there were only a few words in her mouth: "You, you, you?" He, he ———".

After a short period of sluggishness, Gu Jialuo quickly came back to her senses, she secretly clenched her fists, and moved towards the county lord of Qinghe without a trace, standing in front of her mother-in-law and two children in a protective posture.

In the past few years, she has experienced too many things, including unbelievable poisoning and soul dementoring.

It is said that even the husband who accompanies him day and night may be controlled, and it is even more difficult to say the cousin in front of him who has only met a few times and seems to have a problematic character.

Gu Jialuo glanced at the dead corpse on the ground, and his palm was already a little wet. She wasn't sure if Qi Yanzhi was friend or foe, and the only thing she could do at the moment was to be vigilant and adapt.

As soon as the other party behaves inappropriately, she will take her mother-in-law and escape with the children.

"Don't you have fucking ears? I repeat, shut up! There are also those who run and shout, kill! ”

Qi Yan broke off with a snort, and drops of blood dripped from the tip of the knife in his hand.

Coupled with his black Yama-like face, the panicked subordinates in the room were all shocked, and they hurriedly covered their mouths one by one and hid in the corner trembling.

Qi Yanzhi didn't care about these people at all, he glanced at Gu Jialuo, and finally his eyes fell on the county lord of Qinghe, and said in a deep voice: "Aunt, sister-in-law, something is wrong, I can't stay at home, come with me!" ”

The county lord of Qinghe was calm in the end, and she was stunned for a moment, but she still calmed down.

Gently pushing away Gu Jialuo, who was standing in front of him, the county lord of Qinghe looked straight at Qi Yanzhi: "Yanzhi, what's wrong?" I'm not unreasonable, but if you don't make things clear, I must not leave you. After all, your uncle said before he left home that the family is very safe, and complete! ”

Without dodging at all, Qi Yanzhi calmly faced the gaze of the county lord of Qinghe, and said in a calm tone that he had never had before: "Auntie, I know that you must be full of doubts at this moment, and I don't ask you to believe me, but today's incident is related to the rise and fall of our Qi clan, and if you are not careful, the Qi family will be overturned." ”

"......" the county lord of Qinghe frowned. Qi Yanzhi's previous image is too far from the current image, and it is difficult for her to believe it even if he says it today.

Gu Jialuo's heart suddenly moved. A person can make a false statement, but his eyes can't deceive people.

Qi Yanzhi in front of him was by no means a useless slur, and there was a sinister aura on his body.

This kind of evil spirit, Gu Jialuo has seen in many veterans and dead soldiers who have killed people. Gu Jialuo even felt that Qi Yanzhi's hands would never be less than her husband's. You know, Qi Jinzhi is a person who has been on the battlefield.

And Qi Yanzhi is just a young master who grew up in a splendid pile, how could he?

Suddenly, Gu Jialuo's mind flashed a family secret that Qi Jinzhi had mentioned, and blurted out: "Are you 'dark'? ”

Qi Yan was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Gu Jialuo, a person with a foreign surname, to know the biggest secret of the Qi family. It seems that he really underestimated Gu's status in Qi Jin's heart.

Didn't you see it, even the county lord of Qinghe was at a loss when he heard the 'dark', which shows how secret the existence of the 'dark' is.

Qi Yanzhi shook his head gently, "Sister-in-law, this is not the place to talk, if you have anything to say, let's escape from this danger in front of us." ”

"Danger?"

Gu Jialuo didn't think so, there were countless masters hidden in the inner courtyard of the Qi family, and there were secret passages with copper walls and iron walls underground, not to mention that she also had a shadow guard in her hand, as long as there were no hundreds or thousands of enemies attacking, they didn't need to flee at all.

Qi Yanzhi seemed to see through Gu Jialuo's thoughts, and said with a slight sneer: "Sister-in-law, are you still waiting for 'you' shadow guard?" ”

Gu Jialuo's expression was slightly abrupt.

Qi Yanzhi continued: "I don't dare to say it, just this one thing, I dare to guarantee with my life, if my sister-in-law entrusts the safety of a family of women and children to 'your' shadow guards, there is only one end: death has no place to be buried!" ”

Gu Jialuo gasped, "How do you say this?" ”

Although the shadow guard was not cultivated by her, in recent times, the shadow guard's ability and loyalty have made Gu Jialuo feel at ease.

If there is a problem with the shadow guards, Gu Jialuo really doesn't know who else to trust.

Because once the shadow guard is indeed as dangerous as Qi Yanzhi said, then her previous "adventures", and even her relationship with the master, may be a conspiracy against her (or the Qi family).

And her gratitude to the master will also become a joke.

This, this—Gu Jialuo really couldn't accept this possibility.

But Qi Yanzhi doesn't seem to have no purpose, and he has no reason to harm her, let alone the 'dark' that makes her heart tremble, all kinds of signs show that Qi Yanzhi is credible!

That is to say, there is indeed a problem with the Shadow Guard?!

Qi Yanzhi saw that Gu Jialuo's expression was uncertain, and knew that she had believed in herself, so he added a fire, "Sister-in-law guessed well, 'dark' does exist, not only our Qi family, but also the four major mansions have 'dark'." The turmoil outside this time also started from the 'darkness'. And the real mastermind behind the turmoil is the 'dark' rival - the royal family! (To be continued.) )
