Chapter 1128 Letters
Wei Shutong was impassioned, but Qi Ning didn't think so, thinking that such a shocking thing happened in Xichuan, even if the news was deliberately blocked, but you, as the assassin of Xichuan, don't know anything, it is really a dereliction of duty.
"Master Wei, I personally think that the murderer of the Black Rock Cave this time should be the same group of people who framed the Black Rock Cave last time to rebel." Qi Ning said coldly: "The real culprits of the rebellion in the Black Rock Cave last time have not been found out yet, but they have obviously been operating in Xichuan. ”
Wei Shutong said with a look of shame: "This is all the incompetence of the lower officials." Xia Guan has also been tracking down the case, hoping to find out the real murderer behind the scenes, but .....! ”
"That's it." Qi Ning waved his hand, "How is Li Hongxin doing?" ”
Wei Shutong hurriedly said: "After his son died, Li Hongxin has been staying in the Shu Palace, closing the door to thank guests, and the lower officials have been sending people to pay attention to the movements over there, and it is true that no one has visited the Shu Palace. The lower officials heard that Li Hongxin was in the Buddhist hall of the Shu Mansion every day, chanting scriptures day and night, and only eating fasting for three meals a day, which looked like he was a monk at home. ”
"This man is not that honest." Qi Ning said lightly: "Is there any news from the Shadow Crane Villa?" Has the owner of the Lu Village also disappeared all along? ”
Wei Shutong said: "The Shadow Crane Villa is already empty, and the villa is deserted. ”
"By the way, as far as I know, the Xuanyuan Captain of the Shenhou Mansion is still in Xichuan, do you know?" Qi Ning stared at Wei Shutong's eyes: "Does he keep in touch with you?" ”
"Captain Xuanyuan?" Wei Shutong was stunned again, and said strangely: "Guogong, Captain Xuanyuan has already returned to Beijing, don't you know?" When he left, he also resigned to the lower officials, is it .....! ”
Qi Ning was stunned for a moment, and he was also a little surprised.
Qi Ning got the news from the Shenhou Mansion that Xuanyuan Po had been running errands in Xichuan, and even missed Ximen Zhan Ying's marriage for this reason, he thought that since Xuanyuan Po stayed in Xichuan, he would still have some contact with Wei Shutong, but he didn't want Wei Shutong to say that Xuanyuan Po had already returned to Beijing.
In this way, Xuanyuan Po is not in Xichuan at all, and the Shenhou Mansion declares that Xuanyuan Po's stay in Xichuan is just a cover-up? Or is it that Xuanyuan Po deceived Wei Shutong and has been hiding in Xichuan?
Qi Ning was suspicious, but at this time, he didn't have time to ask more about these things, so he got up and said, "I originally wanted to come over and learn something from you, but since Master Wei doesn't know the news from the Black Rock Cave, I can only go and see the situation first." ”
"Guogong, there are rebels who kill people and set fire to the Black Rock Cave, and after the officials know it, they deserve death." Wei Shutong immediately said: "Xiaguan will mobilize troops and horses to go to round up the rebels." ”
"I'm just afraid they'll have to leave long ago." Qi Ning said: "This time I came to Xichuan, they must have already gotten the news, since they know that I will find Lord Wei to lead the troops, naturally they will not stay there and wait for us to pass." ”
Wei Shutong said: "The lower officials sent troops, firstly, to find the traces of those rebels as much as possible, and secondly, to protect the national duke." ”
Qi Ning thought to himself that it was useless to protect me, but thinking of the Black Rock Cave after this incident, the cave owner was killed, and the entire Black Rock Cave must be panicked, if he leads the troops at this time, let the people of the Black Rock Cave see the officers and soldiers going to support, it should be able to stabilize people's hearts to some extent, and he said: "You immediately mobilize people and horses, and we will go to the Black Rock Cave immediately!" ”
Wei Shutong did not delay, he retreated, and after a while, he came over and said: "Guogong, the next official ordered Yao Siyuan to mobilize five hundred elite soldiers nearby, and the next official will go with Guogong." ”
"You have a lot of official business, and the matter is unclear, so I'll go and see what the situation is first." Qi Ning said: "If you need support, then you can lead the troops and hand over the five hundred people to me." ”
Wei Shutong hurriedly said: "The lower officials obey the will of the national government. ”
Yao Siyuan is the number one general under Wei Shutong, and the five hundred elite soldiers are also Wei Shutong's guards in the Assassin Mansion, both in combat effectiveness and equipment are not comparable to other Xichuan soldiers and horses, and Qi Ning knows a little about Yao Siyuan.
Yao Siyuan was in his forties, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and at first glance he was a battle-hardened general, and when he saw Qi Ning, he immediately paid homage, and Qi Ning didn't have time to say more, so he ordered Yao Siyuan to accompany him with five hundred elite soldiers.
When he left the city, it was already dark, and after meeting with the hundred men and horses led by Duan Canghai, he lit torches and rushed to the Black Rock Cave overnight.
The Black Rock Cave is not close to Jinguan City, everyone quickly whipped up, and only used some dry food for a short time along the way, before dusk the next day, they had arrived at the Black Rock Ridge, the Black Rock Ridge Mountains are undulating, the yellow grass is everywhere, and the closer to the mountains, the more difficult the road is to walk, and even many places have no roads to go at all, fortunately, when the previous encirclement and suppression of the Black Rock Ridge, Yao Siyuan sent people to find out the terrain around the Black Rock Ridge, and Xi Mu is the person of the Black Rock Cave, and he is very familiar with the terrain here, As a guide, he led the soldiers and horses to the main ridge of the Black Rock Ridge.
Qi Ning led the troops to stabilize people's hearts, but he also knew that the Miao people had always rejected the officers and soldiers, and did not let the soldiers and horses enter the mountain, but only let them stand by at the foot of the mountain, so Qi Feng led a few people to follow him into the mountain.
Xi Mu led Qi Ning and others to the village before dark, before entering the village, Qi Ning felt that the atmosphere was a little wrong, he had been to the Black Rock Cave before, and had seen the people in the village industrious and simple, but until he reached the top of the mountain range, there were rare traces along the way, only to Bayali's village, and finally saw many Miao people sitting on the ground in groups of three or five, one by one looking sluggish, as if they were frightened.
When everyone saw Xi Mu taking Qi Ning and others into the village, they all stood up, their eyes fell on Qi Ning, and Xi Mu said loudly: "Don't worry, Guogong..... Our great savior is here! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from not far in front of him: "The owner of the creek village, the lord of the creek village .....!" In the midst of the voice, a group of people quickly greeted him, Xi Mu stepped forward quickly, and said, "I invited Jinyi Hou over, the big savior has arrived!" ”
He already knew that Qi Ning Jin was named Jinyihou, but the Miao family in Heiyan Cave didn't know, knowing that if he said that Guogong was coming at this time, everyone wouldn't know who it was.
The group of people looked at Qi Ning's side, ran forward one after another, knelt on the ground, Qi Ning quickly helped up an old man in the lead, and said, "Hurry up, where is Eve?" ”
The old man was over sixty years old, and he was helped up by Qi Ning, and said in a trembling voice: "Master Hou, you ..... You go into the house to see something, let's ..... We've been waiting for you to come! ”
Qi Ning didn't know what the old man wanted to let him see, and at this time, Xi Mu had already said beside him: "This is the master of Qingquan Village, Mangwu Daddy!" ”
"Daddy Mangwu!" Qi Ning didn't have the slightest arrogance and bowed.
Mang Wu hurriedly said: "Don't dare, don't dare." He raised his hand and said, "Please!" ”
Qi Ning followed behind Mang Wu's father, and the group arrived at the stilted building where Bayali lived before, although Mang Wu's father was old, but his body was still neat, and led Qi Ning upstairs, at the end of the staircase, there was a flagpole, Qi Ning glanced at it, and found that there were blood stains on the flagpole
Yeli's head was cut off and hung on the flagpole, could it be this flagpole?
Entering the house, Qi Ning glanced at it, there was no trace of Eve, an ominous premonition enveloped his heart, Mangwu Daddy walked to the small table in the hallway, took a letter from the table, and said, "Master Hou, this was discovered early this morning." Last night we were going to talk to Eve about things, but we haven't found any trace of her, everyone thinks something might happen, we searched all night, early this morning, someone found this letter on this table, we don't know if Eve left, but some people say that it is not Eve's handwriting. ”
Qi Ning glanced at it, and the letter read "Qi Ning personally received", and other than that, there was no superfluous handwriting.
Qi Ning frowned, opened the envelope, took out the letterhead inside, and only glanced at it, his face had changed color slightly, and everyone around him saw Qi Ning's expression, looked at each other, and guessed that things might not be good.
The letter was not very much, just two lines.
If you want her to live, seal the Sword Villa to save people, bring one more person, and kill without mercy!
It only adds up to about 20 words, and there is no payment, but the meaning is very obvious, of course, this letter will not be left by Eve, in this letter, it is said that Eve's has been arrested by them, and if you want Eve's life, you have to go to Fengjian Villa to save people.
Sealed Sword Villa!
On the way here, Qi Ning was worried about Eve's safety, and there was no trace of Eve's arrival this time, although he was worried, but he had been mentally prepared before, but the other party asked Qi Ning to go to Fengjian Villa to save people, which really surprised Qi Ning.
Of course, Qi Ning knew what kind of place the Fengjian Villa was.
Fengjian Villa used to be a famous place in Xichuan, and the Xiang family was also a martial arts family in Xichuan, and the Chengying Sword owned by his family was one of the top ten famous swords.
Xiang Baiying, the leader of the beggar gang, was from Fengjian Villa, and inherited the position of the owner of Fengjian Villa, but he was trapped by love, and gave his childhood sweetheart to Lu Shanghe, who had always loved her, and even handed over Chengying Sword and Fengjian Villa to Lu Shanghe, and since then, he has been gone, and Fengjian Villa has become Lu Shanghe's industry.
At the beginning, Qi Ning followed Xiang Baiying to Fengjian Villa, which was located in a remote area, almost no people within a radius of twenty miles, and it was built on extremely high ground, and the villa could overlook the surrounding scenery.
After Lu Shanghe got the Fengjian Villa, he did not regard the Fengjian Villa as a place to live, but built another Shadow Crane Villa, many years have passed, the original Fengjian Villa in Xichuan has long lost its glory, but it is Lu Shanghe's Shadow Crane Villa has become one of the eight gangs and sixteen factions, and the name moves Shu.
Qi Ning never imagined that those people would let him go to Fengjian Villa alone to make an appointment to rescue Eve.
Lu Shanghe!
Of course, Qi Ning would think of this person at this time.
The East China Sea wiped out the Jiang family and extinguished a great rebellion conspiracy in the hidden danger, and Lu Shanghe was in the East China Sea at the time, and when the East China Sea division wiped out the Jiang family's power on the sea, Lu Shanghe took advantage of the chaos to escape and his whereabouts are unknown.
Qi Ning had already thought at this time that since the other party was about to be in Fengjian Villa, this incident would not be separated from Lu Shanghe's relationship.
At this time, he was once again sure that he had always suspected that there was a huge force hidden in the darkness in the Chu State, plotting an ulterior secret, and it did exist, and this force was connected from Xichuan to the East China Sea, and the power was so strong that he was afraid that it was far away from his own estimate.
