Chapter 149: Hunt and Trace (3)
Ruan Zijin tightened the sword in his hand, turned his head and glanced at Jiu'er behind him, and moved towards the room little by little.
Just about a foot away from the door, the door suddenly opened, followed by a strong palm wind.
Ruan Zijin subconsciously flew away, and took Jiu'er back more than ten feet. Once he had stabilized his figure, he immediately looked up at the doorway.
I saw a man dressed in black with a half-mask on his face standing at the door, looking at the two of them with a cold face.
"It's slow enough." Liao Qi looked at the two of them coldly.
"That's him! I remember the voice! With a hint of anger in her eyes, Jiu'er looked at him and said affirmatively.
When Ruan Zijin heard this, he raised his sword and pointed it at Liao Qi and said, "Say, where is Xiahou Leling?" β
Liao Qi looked at Ruan Zijin and frowned, the appearance of this woman was a little unexpected, and she was really a difficult character to deal with.
"Hmph, since you are so capable, you can check it yourself!" Liao Qi was also not polite, and drew his sword to directly confront Ruan Zijin.
At the beginning, he was seriously injured by Jian Ning's people, and he was hit by Jian Ning's poisonous needle, and now he can survive it can be described as nine deaths. At the beginning, they were better than the crowd, and today he had a one-on-one competition with her.
Jiu'er quickly retreated, intending to take advantage of Ruan Zijin dragging Liao Qi into the room to check if there were any clues.
Ruan Zijin and Liao Qi's swords collided countless times in the air, and the sound of weapons colliding and the increasingly fierce killing moves made both of them exude a thick murderous aura.
The two faced off, Liao Qi won with strength, while Ruan Zijin had the advantage with his amazing swordsmanship, and the truth was not much different for a while, and it was difficult to see the winner.
Between the lightning and flint, the two have fought dozens of moves. Even though there has been considerable loss in the body, Ruan Zijin's sword moves still do not have the slightest flaw, and with a solid foundation and flexible response, he gradually occupies an advantage.
The relative Liao Qi's offensive gradually declined, and after dozens of moves, the previous absolute strength offensive with great brazenness had obviously lost any advantage, but it exhausted his body prematurely, and in the end Liao Qi had to retreat and seek defense.
Ruan Zijin saw that Liao Qi was unable to enter the palace, so he knew that the opportunity had come. The long sword in his right hand attacked Liao Qi without reservation, and when Liao Qi saw this, he subconsciously turned sideways to avoid this blow.
As everyone knows, the moment Ruan Zijin turned sideways, the corners of his mouth raised a triumphant smile. At some point, there was already an extra dagger in his hand, and there was no doubt that it pierced deeply into Liao Qi's abdomen.
Immediately afterwards, when Liao Qi failed to react, he directly kicked Liao Qi away.
Ruan Zijin withdrew his long sword and watched Liao Qi's body fall to the ground like a dead leaf after it was fiercely mounted on the pillar.
The blood in her abdomen and the blood spit out of her mouth made large discordant patterns appear on her black clothes. Drops of blood fell like flowers on the hard floor
"I can't believe you would use such a despicable trick!" Liao Qiqiang propped up half of his body, did not wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, and looked straight at Ruan Zijin.
"For people like you, it doesn't matter if it's despicable or not, as long as the result is good." Ruan Zijin's sword was already in front of Liao Qi's eyes in the blink of an eye, and he said coldly, "Say!" Where is Xiahou Leling? β
"Kill if you want, kill it, anyway, you can't get any clues from my mouth." Liao Qi said with a cold face.
At this time, Jiu'er came out of the house, shook his head at Ruan Zijin and said, "This is just an ordinary mansion, and it has no value at all. β
Ruan Zijin frowned and said, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's take him back first." I don't believe I can't pry his mouth open. β
"Well, that's fine." Jiu'er nodded.
Just as Ruan Zijin put away her sword and was about to step forward to tie up Liao Qi, three hidden weapons suddenly shot at her, blocking her desire to catch Liao Qi at once.
After Ruan Zijin quickly dodged the hidden weapon, he immediately looked in the direction where the hidden weapon was shot, but before he could see the person who came, two smoke bombs suddenly exploded around Liao Qi's body.
Ruan Zijin subconsciously used his sleeves to block his face, mouth and nose. Jiu'er knew that the situation was not good, so she immediately waved her hand and looked at the place where Liao Qi had fallen, but after searching around, there was no one.
Immediately taking a deep breath, feeling the heavy smell of blood in the air, Jiu'er did not hesitate at all, and directly shot a detoxification needle in one direction.
A low voice could be heard in the air, and Jiu'er knew that she had been shot. The smoke screen quickly dispersed, and Jiu'er immediately looked in the direction of the sound just now, but after all, it was a step slower, and only swept a figure that was also black across the wall and disappeared from sight.
Ruan Zijin immediately said: "He must not be able to go far with an injured person, I will go and arrest them." β
Jiu'er stopped: "No, that person should have been poisoned by me, if you don't detoxify it, you won't be able to live." Now if you arrest them back and bother to ask, it's better to follow them, and maybe you can find Qiao Qi's lair here! β
"It's almost dawn." Ruan Zijin looked up at the sky and said to Jiu'er, "You go back to the inn with Qianlan first to tell SΓΉ Ning'er and Leshan, so that they don't worry, I'll follow those two people." β
"Hmm." Jiu'er nodded, handed a sachet to Ruan Zijin, and said, "Bring this with you, and I will be able to find out where you are." β
After Ruan Zijin took the sachet, he chased in the direction where Liao Qi was rescued just now.
Jian Ning and Liu Leshan, who were in the inn, had already been waiting a little anxiously, and when they saw Jiu'er coming in, they immediately stepped forward and asked, "How is the situation?" What about Zijin? β
"She's going to stalk them down and see if she can get to the lair. I'm afraid you're worried, so I'll come back and talk to you first. Jiu'er explained simply.
"Okay, then let's go find Zijin right now." Jian Ning immediately said, "Don't worry, I will protect myself, and besides, I still have Ah Hai by my side." β
It's better to go with them than wait here.
"I'll go too, I can't watch Zijin go on an adventure alone." Liu Leshan also said sternly, "I have also learned a lot in the past two years, and maybe it can come in handy at a critical time." β
When Jiu'er heard this, she shook her head helplessly and said, "I have long expected this to be the result." β
"Qianlan." Jiu'er shouted out the door.
Qianlan came in response, and when she saw Jian Ning again, there was an indescribable look in Qianlan's eyes, surprise, excitement, and guilt.
"Miss" Qianlan bowed respectfully to Jian Ning, and said with a hint of sparkle in her eyes, "Qianlan is sorry Miss" R1152
