Chapter 666: Seeking Revenge
Qi Ning saw the expression of the Fire God Monarch and knew that this Fire God Monarch was obviously quite dissatisfied with what Beitang Feng had done today.
No matter what Beitang Feng is doing in Xiangyang, after all, he is the prince of the Northern Han Dynasty, so he should keep a low profile, don't say that such a dispute between the market and the rivers and lakes, even if there is a big matter, then he must try his best to keep a low profile.
This Beitang wind is good, now Xiangyang is the time when people from all walks of life gather, instead of restraining, he is involved in disputes, no matter what the purpose is, this is obviously an extremely stupid behavior, Huoshenjun is naturally dissatisfied with this, but he is a slave after all, and he dare not say anything.
After packing up his things, the little old man said a few words to the shopkeeper of the tea shop, this tea shop cooperates with craftsmen, that is, each takes what he needs, the artist has a fixed place to sell art for a living, and the tea shop can also attract guests because of this, and no one will suffer.
In addition to the Fire God Jun, Beitang Feng had two other entourages to follow, after the things were packed, Beitang Feng instructed the two to take the guy who was performing arts, and actually led the little old man master and apprentice out of the door, Qi Ning only paid attention to the gang talking about Cao Wei, and really didn't hear what Beitang Feng said to the little old man, seeing that the little old man's master and apprentice were willing to follow Beitang Feng, Qi Ning thought to himself that this kid was not useless, this eloquence was not bad.
Qi Ning saw Beitangfeng leaving, and he didn't talk nonsense, he followed himself, and Mao Hu'er and another beggar glanced at each other and immediately followed.
There were people coming and going on the street, and it was commonplace to see beggars in Xiangyang City these days, so the three of them followed behind, and no one paid attention.
Walking out for a while, Qi Ning suddenly found that there seemed to be someone following Beitang Feng not far away, that person was unkempt, a gray coarse cloth rag, only seven or eight steps away from Beitang Feng and his party, and he followed suit, if he didn't pay careful attention, he would naturally not notice, but Qi Ning observed carefully, and sure enough, he found that the gray-clothed beggar was obviously following Beitang Feng, and his heart sank, and he secretly thought that he was not the only one staring at Beitang Feng.
Suddenly, I thought of the dispute between Fang Cai Beitangfeng and Cao Wei, and secretly thought that this gray-clothed beggar could be someone sent by Cao Wei to follow.
He deliberately distanced himself and did not get closer, but he let the North Hall Wind cross two streets and turn into a long alley as far as his eyes could see, which was quieter than the lively street before, but there were still people coming and going.
The Fire God Monarch looked around along the way, although his martial arts were not weak, but he was obviously not a person who was good at perceiving the surrounding situation, and he never noticed that there were already two people staring at him behind him.
Finally turned into a long street, the house was a little dilapidated, straight to the entrance of the long street, Beitangfeng stopped, looked around, then knocked on the door, soon someone opened the door, several people all entered the yard, Qi Ning was not close, saw the gray-clothed beggar staring in front of him also looked around, although he found Qi Ning a few people, but saw Qi Ning three people standing together talking and laughing, did not get suspicious, turned around and hurried away.
Qi Ning waited for the gray-clothed man to leave, and then walked along the long street, and found that the houses on both sides were in disrepair, very dilapidated, and there were no shops, only houses, and the streets were relatively narrow.
Qi Ning didn't stop, walked to the street, and turned into another street on the side, Mao Fox was a little strange, and asked, "Wait...... Helmsman, do you know that man? ”
Qi Ning smiled slightly, didn't say much, and said: "The Aoki Conference will start at noon tomorrow in Gulongzhong, Xiangyang is only a dozen miles away from Gulongzhong, let's go back to the inn first, eat something, recuperate, and rush over tomorrow morning." ”
Qi Ning had orders, and a few people naturally didn't dare to say more, and after entering the city, Qi Ning had already found an inn to live in.
In the past, it was quite rare for beggars to stay in a hotel, but this time the Aoki Conference was held, and many beggar disciples from all over the country came to participate in the conference, and it has become commonplace for many inns in the city to receive beggars.
Returning to the inn, soon the two disciples who had been sent out to inquire about Cao Wei's news rushed back and said, "Helmsman, Cao Wei lives in the inn, and after entering the inn, he didn't come out himself, but the disciples who followed him all went out separately, it seems that they are going to gather people and do something to the young man before tonight." ”
Qi Ning smiled faintly: "This Cao Wei is really too unproductive, if you really want to solve personal grievances, why bother to find so many people." I thought that the gray-clothed beggar I saw before should be the person sent by Cao Wei to find out where Beitangfeng landed first, and then act after dark.
Although Cao Wei was numerous and arrogant, after all, he was in Xiangyang City, and the officers and soldiers in the city were patrolling around the city as if they were facing a great enemy, so as to prevent murders in the city due to the influx of a large number of people in the rivers and lakes.
Cao Wei didn't do it during the day, naturally because he was worried that there would be too many people, and he was afraid that he would provoke the people who came to the government as soon as he made a move, and it was naturally more convenient to do it at night than during the day.
After a few people had eaten, it was already dark, Qi Ning told Mao Hu'er and the others to rest early, he lived alone in a room, and it was still early to see that the hour was still early, and now the house practiced the drunken dream nine styles taught to Baiying, for the tricks and formulas of the first five styles of the drunken dream nine styles, Qi Ning was already quite familiar, but when it came to integration, Qi Ning knew that this kind of beggar gang town gang was not able to fully comprehend it in three or five months.
The drunken dream nine styles and the reverse tendon sutra are the two great masteries of the beggar gang, which can be used as the treasure of the beggar gang, the tricks of the drunken dream nine styles are of course mysterious, and the trick is even more wonderful, otherwise the martial arts of various sects on the rivers and lakes are full of sweat, how can the drunken dream nine styles become the beggar gang of masters?
Qi Ning knew in his heart that it seemed simple to learn the five styles for five consecutive nights, but to truly fully understand the true meaning of this set of martial arts, it was only the beginning.
It's like playing chess, you may be able to understand some basic routines in one day, but to fully comprehend the essence of it, some people may not be able to get it in their lifetime.
After a set of kung fu, Qi Ning not only did not feel tired, but felt more energetic, and couldn't help but think that he was only afraid that he was really a martial arts wizard, and he had an extraordinary talent in martial arts, he remembered that the old lady Miao Wuji, the divine doctor of Dongqi, mentioned that he seemed to have a strange vein in his body, and it was much easier to practice than ordinary people, and he made rapid progress in martial arts, could it be that there was a reason for this?
He washed his face, then went out, and without informing Mao Hu'er and the others, he left the inn and went straight to the courtyard where Beitangfeng lived.
Qi Ning knew that the courtyard naturally had an owner before, but Beitang Feng was not short of money, so it was naturally easy to rent that courtyard.
The inn is mixed, but it is not as quiet as the kind of single-family courtyard, and the place where Beitangfeng is located is also a relatively dilapidated place in Xiangyang City, which is not noticeable.
I just don't know if this Beitang Feng has only stayed here for two days, or if he wants to stay here for a while.
However, Qi Ning felt that with the IQ of Beitang Feng, it should not be his idea to choose a place to live here, this kind of rich prince, which one does not pay attention to pomp and circumstance in food, clothing, housing and transportation, with Beitang Feng's temperament, when he arrives in Xiangyang, he naturally wants to live in the best inn, how can he live in such a dilapidated place?
He hadn't seen Beitangyu in the teahouse before, and Qi Ning secretly thought that Beitangyu was probably in the courtyard.
Xiangyang City as early as a few days ago, the government has already laid a curfew, after dark, it is not allowed to wander in the streets and alleys, but if it is found, it will be immediately arrested in prison and eat prison for a few days, so there are not many people in the streets and alleys of Xiangyang City, and it is relatively quiet.
It's just that Qi Ning knows very well in his heart that the real effect of the government's curfew will not be too big, and those people in the rivers and lakes who want to go out will never leave home because of the curfew, but everyone is also afraid of the government in terms of face, and they will not grow up and walk on the street brightly.
The courtyard where Beitangfeng lived, there was a long street in front, and an extremely narrow alley in the back, which was dark, Qi Ning knew that there must be someone guarding the front yard, and flashed into the black alley like a ghost, only took a few steps forward, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and faintly found that there was a shadow in front of him.
This alley is too narrow, and Qi Ning didn't expect that there were people in such a narrow alley, but the person also noticed Qi Ning and said in a low voice: "Who?" ”
Qi Ning reacted quickly and asked rhetorically, "Who are you?" ”
The shadow approached this side, holding a dagger in his hand, although it was very dark in the alley, but the bright moon hung high in the sky, and the faint glimmer still penetrated into the deep alley, the man saw Qi Ning dressed, seemed to be relieved, and asked: "You are also sent by Lord Cao Helm?" ”
When Qi Ning heard this, he immediately understood that the person in front of him was actually Cao Wei's person, and when he saw the other party dressed as a beggar, he smiled lightly and said, "Is there anyone else here?" ”
The beggar said angrily: "No, it's just me, grandma's, let Lao Tzu hide here, black rumbling, why can't this run away from here." ”
Qi Ning understood that this person was arranged in this black alley, but it was Cao Wei who was worried that Beitangfeng would escape from this alley, and said with a smile: "Those who are capable work hard, and send you here, your ability is always better than others." ”
The beggar said "oh" before he said, "Master Cao Helm can you say when to do it?" Where are the others? ”
Qi Ning knew that Cao Wei had been eyeing Beitangfeng's residence, and he would definitely seek revenge tonight, look at this posture, if Beitangfeng was an ordinary person, he would definitely be unlucky tonight, but Beitangfeng had Huoshenjun under him, and there were also several guards, these people should be people who followed Beitangfeng from Dongqi.
Since Beitang Feng is an envoy, he will naturally select skilled attendants from the Northern Han Dynasty, and these people are good hands specially selected by Beitang Feng from the mission.
"We've been sent to guard here, just watch over here." Qi Ning said with a smile: "Anyway, if the fight starts in front, it's none of our business, and when we hear the movement of the fight later, it will naturally start fighting." ”
The beggar said, "That's what you said, it doesn't matter what he looks like in front of him, it's our business." Hehe, Master Cao said that there was a big man next to the dog offal, saying that he didn't look weak, and when the time came, no matter how tall he was, it would be useless. Xiang Qi Ning said: "I have been guarding for a while, I guess I won't do it for the time being, I didn't sleep all night last night, I was a little sleepy, I leaned here for a while, and called me out." ”
Qi Ning said: "You sleep with yours, I'll watch for a while." ”
"Good brother." The beggar smiled, sat down, leaned against the stone wall, and dozed off.
Qi Ning thought to himself that it was no wonder that Cao Wei wanted to find a group of people to come over, it seemed that Cao Wei's eyesight was good, and today he saw that the Fire God Monarch was not simple in the tea shop, so he wanted to win more and less.
He remembered that Beitangfeng's residence was at the corner of the street, and it was easy to find, so he bent down and touched it there, walked for a while, and was about to go out of the alley, when he saw the light reflected in front of him, and approached the wall, and when he reached the back window, he heard a faint sound from inside.
The voice was not loud, but Qi Ning's ears were amazing, but he could hear it faintly clearly, and only heard a woman's voice coming out: "Master, there are hundreds of miles on this road, and the road is difficult, do you really want to take them over?" ”
