Chapter 1030: Dragon Slayer Knife

Luoyang, Qin Hou Mansion, Qin Hao's study.

"This is the Dragon Slayer Knife?"

Qin Hao carefully played with the treasure knife in his hand, and then said to the beautiful woman in front of him with a smile: "Xiuning, you won't be using a fake to deceive me, right?" ”

Seeing that Qin Hao actually questioned himself, a trace of anger flashed in Li Xiuning's eyes, and he snorted coldly: "Hmph, it can't be fake, it can't be fake, you can go and test it casually!" ”

Qin Hao looked at Xiuning playfully, and said with a smile after a few seconds: "Teasing you, I know it's true." ”

Li Xiuning only felt powerless when she saw this, this feeling of wanting to get angry but not being able to get out was really aggrieved!

At the beginning, Dong Zhuo sent Li Xiuning as an envoy to Luoyang to negotiate with Qin Hao, and negotiated to exchange the remaining three counties of Sizhou for Li Shimin, but later the negotiations broke down because of the increase in troops of Qin and Liang's two armies, but Li Xiuning, as an envoy, did not leave.

Since her brother Li Shimin was captured alive, Li Xiuning has been trying to rescue her, but because she has no idea where Li Shimin is being held, and the force she controls is not strong enough, it is impossible to forcibly rescue people, and only through negotiation can she rescue people.

Li Xiuning tried to contact the Taoists, hoping to get the support of the Taoists and use the power of the Taoists to exert pressure on Qin Hao, but the Taoists became more and more tense due to the death of Guangchengzi, and the relationship between the Taoists and the hundred schools became more and more tense, and they had no leisure to help Li Xiuning at all.

Since the first great master was produced, there has never been a precedent for dying in battle, but the Taoists are now dead, Zhang Daoling, Guangchengzi two great masters, and Dugu Yuyun, the head of Shushan, is also missing after the fall of Luoyang, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead.

Every great master is precious, not to mention that the Taoist family has lost three in a row, and this naturally makes the Taoist high-level extremely angry.

Now the relationship between the hundred schools is extremely tense, and a life-and-death war may break out at any time, so the Taoists naturally have no spare strength to save Li Shimin.

Li Xiuning touched a nose in Taoism, but she didn't give up, but found her second grandfather, Taiqingdao.

But the unfathomable second grandfather just said 'I know' without being salty, and then stopped paying attention to Li Xiuning, which also made her seriously doubt whether the Taoist family had given up on the second brother.

Just when Li Xiuning had nothing to do about the rescue, he learned that Dong Zhuo decided to exchange the land of the three counties for his brother, which also moved Li Xiuning for a while.

After that, Li Xiuning went to Luoyang alone to negotiate with Qin Hao, but in the end he failed for various reasons, which also made Li Xiuning feel extremely disappointed.

Without the land of the Three Counties as a bargaining chip, the only thing in Li Xiuning's hand that might make Qin Hao's heart flutter was probably the Dragon Slaying Treasure Knife, one of the keys to the Heavenly Prince's treasure.

Li Xiuning knew that the second brother also valued the treasure of Tiangong very much, but Luoyang had been completely occupied by Qin Hao, and the second brother had no chance to get the treasure of Tiangong, so it was better to exchange his life with the key.

The huge wealth contained in the treasure of Tiangong is even more valuable than the three counties of Sizhou, and there is no prince in the world who does not want to get it.

But Li Xiuning only has a key in her hand after all, and she still doesn't know where the specific location of the treasure is, so she is not sure if she can exchange the value of a key for her second brother.

But this is Li Xiuning's last hope, so she must try it whether she succeeds or not.

What Li Xiuning didn't know was that due to the asymmetry of information, she had missed the best chance to rescue Li Shimin.

Before the alliance of princes retreated, if Li Xiuning could know the location of the treasure, he might not be able to coerce and lure him through this matter, and maybe he could force Qin Hao to let Li Shimin go.

Although Li Xiuning put all his hopes of exchanging Li Shimin on the key to the treasure, he would not stupidly take the key to Qin Hao to replace him.

After a series of negotiations, Li Xiuning found that although Qin Hao was very interested in the key, he felt that the weight of a key was not enough to exchange for Li Shimin, so he decisively rejected her transaction of exchanging the key for people.

Qin Hao wanted to get two keys at once, but Li Xiuning really only had one in his hand, and Li Xiuning could only try to snatch the second key after hard persuasion to no avail.

The dragon slaying knife in Li Xiuning's hand was obtained from the thief god Ji Wuming, and Ji Wuming was friends with the thief Shengbai Zhantang, and the two often committed crimes together.

Therefore, Li Xiuning judged that it was very likely that the Heavenly Sword was in the hands of Bai Zhantang, so he mobilized the power of the entire bad people to search for the thief Bai Zhantang.

Bai Zhantang's strength is not very strong, but his ability to escape and counter-reconnaissance is the best in the world, and the clues pursued by unscrupulous people are quickly broken, and there is no trace of Bai Zhantang.

Li Xiuning's plan to hunt down Bai Zhantang was at an impasse again, but he couldn't find Bai Zhantang, he couldn't get back the Heavenly Sword, and he couldn't get his second brother Li Shimin back, which also made Li Xiuning feel a little desperate.

Time flies, and in the process of Li Xiuning's pursuit of Bai Zhantang, a series of major events occurred, such as Dong Zhuo's death, the withdrawal of the Liang army, and the southward movement of the Southern Coalition Army.

Li Xiuning was in charge of the bad people and some of the Liang Guards, so he could naturally get the news of Dong Zhuo's death as soon as possible, and when he learned that Yang Jian unified the Liang army and retreated to Guanzhong, Li Xiuning's first thought was that Yang Jian wanted to seize power.

After Yang Jian unified the Sizhou Liang Army, the strength under his control undoubtedly surpassed that of the Li family, and if he returned to Guanzhong at this time, it would be difficult to compete with Yang Jian with the strength in the hands of his father Li Yuan.

As soon as he thought of this, Li Xiuning became more and more impatient to rescue Li Shimin, after all, Li Shimin is not only Dong Zhuo's son-in-law, but also the successor of Dong Zhuo's internal determination, once he returns, he will definitely get the support of all the Liang generals, and then the strength of the Li family will once again surpass Yang Jian's Yang family.

But at this moment, Qin Hao came to tell Li Xiuning that since the Qin army could only get Sizhou through war, it was naturally useless to keep Li Shimin, so he decided to execute Li Shimin.

Qin Hao's words frightened Li Xiuning, and now she was not thinking about rescuing Li Shimin, but how to let Qin Hao not kill her second brother and save her second brother's life for the time being.

Li Xiuning reached an agreement with Qin Hao as a last resort, she begged Qin Hao not to kill Li Shimin for the time being on the condition of offering the Dragon Slaying Knife, and after she found and offered the Heavenly Sword, Qin Hao released Li Shimin.

Li Xiuning knew that this agreement was completely unbinding for Qin Hao, and if Qin Hao didn't want to abide by it, she wouldn't have any way at all, but now she could only trust Qin Hao's credit and character, so she finally handed over the Dragon Slayer Knife.
